Eating tofu doesn't make you a good person

[the negative feeling inside is not for the food choices but for the polarity (good/bad) and linkages (food=health) that we use unconsciously during our day. Polarity and linkage are forms of denial... a game of pretend we play with ourselves, but are unaware we are pretending]

When we think we are eating healthy or really any "good" thing, the denial in place is so overshadowed that not a peep of emotional or bodily response gets to our awareness on the denial we are using.

Why does this matter? Truth will not be found with so many veils obscuring it. Allowing food to be as it is and allowing the body to consume what it requires without the fuss of judgement won't tie you to a diet. It is ok to believe your food causes, in-part, health and disease, but wouldn't it be wonderful to just choose health and not worry about the details?

In a nut-shell that's what I'm saying. How to make this change would take several loooong posts. So, I'm stopping here.

I'd like to hear your several loooong posts. I was trying to get this point across in the sugar intake thread, but I only got her to understand it a little bit.

It's ok. I didn't ask.

[Divajules]

I totally agree with Dharma. In fact, even though the OP doesn't seem to be interested, I am interested in the rest of what you had to say.

I, for one, would LOVE to see more long and detailed posts from you. You have a lot of wisdom to share and not just on this subject.

So, Dharma, care to share more?

If not, of course that's cool too!

The theory that Hitler was actually a vegetarian is also a myth. It was merely political posturing put out by Goebbells to show the absoulute dedication and self-discipline Hitler possessed. Funny how many people still believe Goebbells lies today.

I understand that that is common metaphysics right there. Seth/Jane Roberts spoke a bit about that and I'm sure many of the other "channelers" used that same information.

But there are few, if any, folks in the Western world who can overcome the belief systems ingrained since birth about foods.

Yes it would be wonderful but one has to use caution when it comes to matters of health. It's similar to the concept of not needing western medicine. I did a lot of the Shakti Gwain type visualization to cure some minor skin problems but to be honest in the end I had to rely on western medicine.
Had I been working with a more serious condition I could have caused myself more harm than good.

Wayne Dyer once said in a seminar, "a woman asked me what would I do if I got leukimia?" "I told her that I just wouldn't get leukimia".

But last year Wayne was diagnosed with a mild form of that disease. If anyone had a strong belief system in health it was W.D. So that stuff is complicated.

There ARE Easterners from India who can manipulate those belief systems. Folks who do not need to eat or who meditate for months.

Because "vegetarian" is the "Other." Meat-eater is what society identifies with. By identifying Hitler as vegetarian, meat-eaters can make sure that together Hitler and vegetarian are incessantly becoming the Other.

The term is omnivore, not meat eater.

I don't see your point? Carnivore refers to anyone who eats meat, and carnivore means meat-eater. I don't place Latin words as superior to Germanic ones.

car·ni·vore (kärn-vôr, -vr)
n.
1. A flesh-eating animal.

way to pick and choose there buddy. Your forgot some parts of that definition.

an organism that derives its energy and nutrient requirements from a diet consisting mainly or exclusively of animal tissue, whether through predation or scavenging

The term meat eater is usually used to make an OMNIVORE look like someone who just eats meat. That's almost as bad as vegans calling us carnivores. There is no reason for it other then to try to embellish the point.
