less food = higher state of consciousness

whoever guards his mouth preserves his life; he who opens wide his lips comes to ruin.

i know a lot of people get into the nutrition side of things and get stuck in beleives, that may or may not be true. i know i did. that the body needs so much protein, calories, and minerals and vitamins. im just thinking whether you considered a method that gets all of these things, with the least amount of work on the digestion system. i think youll feel alot better, its because people eat 3 big meals a day, and the body spends all its energy getting rid of it that people dont feel that great and low energy

iv known about the book for a while now and only just read this part, thought it would be worth sharing

the unconscious works in mysterious ways......

"It is worthwhile to be aware that a large part of instincts consists of beliefs.
Man is a powerful being with potentially limitless abilities but man is limited
by beliefs. Beliefs are barriers or limits that man does not cross. The
more beliefs man has and the more limited they are, the more man has to
release in order be free.
If you believe that the body needs to eat to live, then you have to eat. If you
do not eat, you will destroy the body. With this belief you also can give up
aspiring to inedia or non-eating.
Those, who believe that the body functions because it is built and energised
by consumed matter, are not able to keep the body functioning properly.
The belief, that a body has to eat in order to live, is a barrier that cannot be
crossed by man aspiring to inedia. Man needs to remove this barrier. Then,
reprogramming in this area is required. I wrote about it in earlier chapter
called “a secret”.
It is the same with other beliefs. Every belief is a limit. You cannot cross a
limit because if you do, you suffer. But you can remove limits, this gives
you more and more freedom to act. Reprogramming is a process of removing
beliefs from instinct and opening a way to freedom.
When you are releasing beliefs, then you are also leaving those who manipulate
you. The master, guru, spiritual guardian, adviser, pastor, priest,
teacher and so on, are all your barriers you do not want to crass. They also
are sources of your beliefs. When you decide to become more free, you will
leave them, that is, you will remove these barriers, you will stop believing
them."

I don't trust the experts who claim excessive exercise is beneficial. 45min-1hr cardio with some strength training is all the body needs every day or every other day.

sungazing is nice idea but not practical solution for energy work considering most people live in populated cities that very rarely have clear skies

"im not trying to sell you on this idea, in the sense of converting you to it, i want you to play with it, i want you to think of its possibilities, im not trying to prove it, im just putting it foward as a possibility of life, to think about"

these books can help one get in touch with their subtle energy bodies

does anyone know of any other books on fasting / breatharian / inedia ?

i have another question if anyone wants to discuss

do you think its just our egos that want to get involved in the world that exists outside of us?? or do you believe that the world is something the soul wants to experience?

"Through the lower frequencies of our anger, fear, and addictions, the darkside astral-cooties have attached themselves to us. This is one reason why all spiritual paths emphasize purity of mind and body. Purity simply reduces the ability of the lower realms to connect with you and become attached to you."

iv noticed this a lot with family and friends also recently, it seems that when nowadays some dont want to contact me anymore

not all religious people are idiots

Fasting for Spiritual Breakthrough

Very good post OP, thanks. I think I'll spend some time tomorrow thinking about what my beliefs are. I'm sure I have a couple. I do believe you can live on prana.

I have not read this whole thread but in case someone has not mentioned it yet there is an Alchemical saying "Solve et Coagula" meaning dissolve the body coagulate the spirit. Yes eating less food or breatharianism will be more common in the future.

the problem i had is i didnt beleive that i could be happier without being able to eat the foods / drinks that i enjoyed and found comforting

absolutely. And with no food at all you go straight to heaven (or hell.. probably hell)

it's a silly correlation to make, that's what happens to truth when modern media touches it.

The FACT of the matter is, eating moderately and vegetarian is part what is necessary for the process of kundalini, eating meat full of bad juju acidifies the body and blurs the mind which puts the brakes on the energy, its density keeps it locked up in the base chakra making you horny and aggressive/ territorial, at which point its release to relieve tension.

So what you eat is a small but essential part to play in developing your consciousness

you know the expression 'he's got balls' in reference to bravery/ confidence......well this is actually true, in order to ascend the spine you must conquer sex and death, in waking life and in your dreams, so you need your balls full of the spunk, wankers won't make it....this is your mana, you got to store the mana and help it arise the spine by facing your inner spiritual depths

we all have more choice nowadays, we can choose to try to integrate into a society, that told us how to live, never liked us in the first place, and probably never will.

or we can live by our own rules, and find some kind of higher state

"You decide your own level of involvement" Tyler Durden

from sunset 'limited

"A questioner wants the truth.
A doubter wants to be told
there ain't no such thing."

that is why I, and those that are like me, are gonna be compelled to find out the Truth about fasting / inedia / breatharianism.

That's horseshit.

I remember when some stupid blog claimed that heartbeat crap years ago. It is wrong and people who believe it are usually fat ass slackers that use it as an excuse to sit on the couch. They usually die from heart disease way earlier than if they had been athletic.

On the other hand someone who runs has a consistently lower heart rate so even if that theory were true, you would live much longer by being a runner since 95% of the time your heart rate would be about 40% lower than it would be if you were a fat ass obese piece of shit sitting in front of the tv 8 hours a day.

Intermittent fasting and reduced caloric intake has long since been proven to make you live longer. There's nothing new under the sun with that topic.

It is true. Eat less and you will be healthier and live longer. It's a fact.

that wasnt really my point. the point is, we know so little about human life and existance itself dont we if we didnt even know we didnt need food to live in the first place?

true... this is why i blend with a ninja. makes the digestion much easier and fulfilling.

there is no food that i know of that gives you the rit amount of everything, protein:fat:carbs. so a balanced regular and rotating diet is needed. finally, depending on your needs at the time for recovery, the current tasks, and promotion of future needs, your caloric and supplemental needs vary.

last... it is important to fast. that is why breakfast is called BREAK-FAST.

There was a Chinese Breatharian woman, Xu Fang, who had not eaten for ten years and this author detailed the time he spent with her for ten days to write about her.

There are pictures of her only in the book and I bought it just to read the chapter about her. She is very beautiful.

He wrote that her hands are warm and that "the source of her warmth is her kindness"

yes

do monks and gurus go running/lifting weights or do they sit around enjoying stillness and being?

stress on the body is stress on the body whether it is "good" (exercise) or "bad" (running from something life threatening or mental stress)

why do you think exercise is pushed so hard by the "health"care industry? surely, not because they want to make less money

i have this image of an enlightened man, someone who doesnt age, stays young forever, who doesnt need to eat, and can do anything possible so long as he doesnt get hooked, i suppose he would need enough mindfulness to make sure he didnt become mechanical

i think thats what its all about tbh, becoming less mechanical.

like socrates said in the peaceful warrior movie, habit is the problem

i dunno about you but whenever i eat, its always because i want to, and its nearly always the same food. this shows that its like an adiction whether i admit this to myself or not

spiritual/consciousness practises, aim to increase choice in your life, so you can make more choices in the moment, eat differently than you usually would, more free will

It doesn't work like that, you are using the two ends, but right in the middle is the balance, no too much not to little,Look at the old sages, they eat little, exercise with gentle and soft exercise, is call balance.

When we destroy our belief system, anything is possible. I'm experiencing this at this present moment. We are brain washed, but the good thing is that you are a free spirit, and have the potential to change things around, in order to change you have to connect with your spirit, fear is and emotion that will stop you for going in the direction of your full potential.
Once you look behind the veil there is not coming back...so happy to see you OP bringing this subject to GLP,This a lot.

beleif system, exactly.

all the monks are forced to beleive in the middle way, thats why they would never attempt something like this.

that doesnt mean it isnt possible

all buddhists are expected to beleive in the 3 universal truths of existance also,

unsatisfactoriness
selflessness
and impermance

this is the first thing that all buddhists are taught, and its probably the last thing they will ever unlearn.
its the foundation of their beleif system.
its a very negative foundation, one that i dont think higher forces subscribe to.

are these 3 truths real or not? theres no way we will ever know unless we are willing to spend all that time in meditation
