Regarding diet and nutrition... and the Law of One.
One very important, if not the most important aspect of diet and
nutrition is "WHAT DO YOU ACCEPT AND BELIEVE"?
If you believe that raw meat is bad for you, then it is. On the other
hand if you believe that eating raw liver gives you boundless energy
and vitality - then it will. If you believe that raw sprouts are good
for you, then they are. If you believe that eating raw sprouts will
give you intestinal gas, then it will. If you believe that eggs must
be eaten raw and never cooked, because eating them cooked will give
you constipation, then it will.
If you believe that improper food combinations will give you
heartburn and indigestion, then they will. If you believe that
drinking coffee after meals helps your digestion, then it does. If
you believe that eating fish is bad for you, then it is.
The most significant part of nutrition to my way of thinking is our
belief system. When we try anything new in our diet, our belief
system will eventually determine the end result - we will either
reject or accept.
One reason why placebos work in so many tests and trials is because
of the mind/belief system of the individual.
Ra always tells us to disregard anything that does not resound within
us as being correct and right, and only accept what we deem proper
and fitting. Same must be said for what is taught regarding nutrition.
And that is why, imho, that you have hundreds or even thousands of
testimonies from certain diet/nutrition advocates that will always
contradict and deny what others are teaching.
From my perspective the mind is a very powerful "machine" which we
will never fully comprehend.
