The simple rules of eating

If God's Kingdom is all there is, then the human entity does not exist; and God proves it by letting it die. Man is the connecting link between a spiritual being and the animal. With man, the invisible has descended and became visible in a physical body. When man takes nourishments from an outside world, he declares ``I do exist''. To feel alive in this world, he must kill everything that stands in his way. Rarely does he use his existence for finding his way back home again.

Everyone is driven by hate against the voice that calls him home. But he cannot block it out except through anger which pops up at the slightest reminder of his wrong journey. Taking life from his false surrounding, he is driven to defy God by killing his spirit.

When man stills his hunger from an outside world, a payment is demanded. This is experienced as pain.

To become worthy of the higher is to fall out of love with the lower; so, the first rule of eating is to eat less. It is impossible for man to do that if he is unhealthy, not only on his physical level but also on his emotional and mental levels.

Health returns in degrees. The more man stays away from wrongdoing, the more of his health returns. Health is a journey into simplicity.

Man's physiology and anatomy are still the same today as they were millions of years ago when he lived exclusively on fruits. And still, fruits are abundant everywhere because these delicious manifestations of the loftiest aspect of nature's creation will always remain his most sensible foods.

The closer a food comes to its raw, unheated, uncut form, the less energy will it draw in its digestion; and the simpler and unmixed the meal is, the faster it digests. Foods whose cells have died through fermentation or heating, and all minerals that are not bound within a living cell, are toxic and must not be ingested at all. Every cell that has died becomes a poison to the physical body. Dead organic substances gave to be predigested first to become digestible. This pre-work is done by the plant kingdom and the vast world of microorganisms who were especially created for feeding the plant kingdom. The same law operates in the rainforest, where trees do not feed directly on soil rich in minerals, rather they need the medium of decaying organic substances processed by microorganisms in order to grow into giants.

It must become clear that the simple diet of ``fruits ony'' does not heal the body. But fruits are already predigested by nature and thereby unburden digestive work. That leaves enough energy for the body to engage in self-healing processes. The release of vital energy does not need an intake of physical substances to do its work. Physical substances simply draw out an excessive amount of this most valuable inheritance to keep life going in spite of the Soul's physical indulgences. And every individual has only so much energy to spare.

All palates can be reeducated to the fruit eating diet. This is done most easily by going through a fasting period where the taste buds become sensitive to wrong foods again. Unfortunately, humans remain set in their wrong ways - and not only in their eating habits. They do not trust in their own investigations, they rather rely on critics and educators who all are failures themselves.

Nothing can change the fact that the body does not receive energy from foods that ferment or putrefy in the digestive tract. The evidence that an unadulterated digestive system reacts violently to cooked and processed foods should be a clear message to eradicate them completely from any diet. But nobody wants to do that, they rather choose a violent death before its time. The fact remains that all condiments interfere with digestion, even stop it completely. They camouflage the true flavor of adulterated foods by masking their repulsiveness, thereby inviting more gluttonous eating. They must be called by their rightful names - ``POISON''. How did Samuel Johnson express it?

A cucumber should be well sliced, and dressed with pepper and vinegar and then thrown out as good for nothing.

Every man can make a giant step towards health by committing himself to a simple rule that says:

Why not keep all foods simple? The most important single thing I must remember is this: there are no good combinations of foods. Not one. One only food must make the meal, and not a mixing and matching. 'Keep it simple.' If I eat a couple of tomatoes or avocados, I eat them only and I let it go at that! Fruit meals are the most easy 'monomeals' I can learn to live with. If this is not acceptable, at least I will group foods together according to similarity of taste and texture. 'Keep it simple'! I know that every wrong combinatoin is a transfression that is visited upon the body, which is the home of my life. It demands its toll of suffering whether I am aware of it or not. And if I suffer, I have only myself to blame.

No man can diet or fast himself to health. He must live his way to it. All of his living habits combined make up a life of health or of disease, for he who is ill has marked himself a fool and a weakling! To a much greater degree than hunger, must physical, emotional and mental hunger be seen for what it is: an outcrop of man's hate for God.

If a man sees that all this information is true, he is bound to make a change. But does he have the inner courage to carry out what it demands - or will he dive deeper into unconsciousness?

A healthy body is something real to work with because it reacts with pain to the slightest trespass. It is more than just the center of man's physical life; it is the key which which he can unlock the door to his spiritual home.
