I love you and accept you as you are. have a good night...

Re: We are not one!
 

Well sorry to disappoint you but the supermarket shelves are as full as ever with meat.
In fact there are more and more supermarkets opening all the time.

When the NWO takes over and food supplies run out I will be eating alot more rabbit :hunter:



Krystal this forum has lots of information avaiable I suggest you have a good look around, you might find out a few things. Especially suggest the threads on global warming.

Re: We are not one!
 

Krystal please don't tell you're an indigo child as that will do you no favours at all :naughty:
Best thing to do is just except that we are all different and on different paths, hopefully yours will take you where you want to go.
Enjoy the ride :original:

Re: We are not one!
 

:wall: Somehow I had the impression that people in this forum were a little more enlightened, guess it's the wrong forum for this conversation..... So those who understand what I was saying they are not posting and those who don't and want to show off their ego instead of elevating themselves to being a greater being by justifying their action instead of trying to understand that it is for our planet's own good well that is a shame.... Anyway... love and blessings to all.

Re: We are not one!
 

Now this is the part I have trouble with.

I am sorry if I have read you wrong. Seriously, I can't work out if you are trolling for a reaction (I mean you certainly picked a controversial subject and hit it in the manner that usually gets people going) or you genuinely think that you are in some way different and implicitly superior to other people. If so, well done, but you are among the few rare individuals to ever come on here with the balls to actually say so. Good luck with that.

Re: We are not one!
 

I'm down to a 95% vegetarian diet, only eating fish now, not eating steak or bacon and eggs or chicken etc anymore.. Ive evolved to this slowly over the last few years and am as physically strong as ever and feel more alive.

People at work think I'm weird for not being a carnivore like them, this is what I say to them:

You are what you eat, right?

Well if you eat DEAD MEAT then what are you?

Though I am glad for my own health sake, I would never challenge other people on their diet because what you resist persists.. you can lead by peaceful example.

Its the same with the millions of zomboid sheeple sucking on their nicotine death sticks because they have some silly notion that it is fashionable to have bad breath and be suicidal.

The Ringing Cedars of Russia books turns the tables on the prevalent scientific view that our ancestors were meat eating cave men.

Anastasia reveals that animals and man lived in harmony and helped each other co-create the space of love that was our earth.

All views are valid, there is no truth.

However once you develop a sense of compassion for all living creatures you will naturally gravitate away from a meat diet.

I'm no saint. But I am surfing the crest of the new energies and the intelligence of the vegetables and herbs in each meal speaks to my body and makes it easier each time to make healthier choices.

Swanny, do what is right for you mate, your body will tell you what it needs.

Sunlight and pristine water (lots of it) and fresh air will go a long way to assist your health.

Re: We are not one!
 

Luminari I am doing exactly that and am happy about it :original:


Can't help noticing you saying you would never challenge other people on their diet but then go on to insult people that smoke :smoke::naughty:


Sorry for not understanding but how does eating the flesh of a fish differ to that of an animal? :blink:

You are what you eat, right?
Well if you eat DEAD MEAT then what are you? :wink2:

Re: We are not one!
 

Thank you Crystal for this thread...it is really a food for thought for many, i hope. One can't force another to give up meat....It will come spontaneously when they understand and when the compassion becomes greater than the craving....
PS. there were so many studies in different subjects that contradict one another, it all depends who pays for it. I remember years ago there was a study saying that eggs are bad for you because they raise your cholesterol, a few years later a new study showed that eggs were good for you. coffee was bad for you bacause of this and that, this and that.....then I read that coffee is good for you because of this and that, this and that.....The earth used to be flat once:winksmiley02:, and it was proved by science...now it is round...:lol3:

Re: We are not one!
 

Hi Krystal. Im not having a go at you in this reply, but I would like to point out your posts contain a lot of disinformed dogma.
* Where does your rice come from? Not Oz i would imagine. How did it it get to you, and at what cost to the environment? Is it really organic? How do you know? Copper Sulphate is incredibly toxic yet the soil association allow it to be be sprayed on grapes. I lived in India many years, i wouldnt believe any organic label from there. Also I had my own organic farm for many years and would watch the sprays from my neighbours float over onto my garden.
* I dont have the link anymore but (all) soya is to be avoided, they wash it in hexane and still call it organic..but there are many other prolems besides..i guess if you are growing your own from guaranteed non GM seeds, but are you?
* How many people died extracting the nasties used in your battery system for your solar energy? What will happen to your dead battery?
* Does your 'solar' system use plastic? molten plastic mimics oestrogen and is very harmful to the planet.
* I shake my head at you lack of awareness of global warming. Mankind's effect on the problem is maybe 0.0000001 %, ok i made up the number, but its in the correct ballpark, warming is not anthropological.
* Everything is alive, even the rocks. Do you really know the difference between eating an animal and eating a plant? Carrots dont have branches, they dont grow back. By the same analogy, if an animal has given birth is that a branch? Is it ok to eat it then?

OK I wont go on..what I am trying to say is try to remove yourself from the dogma and FEEL for yourself what is right and wrong and what you should eat, and how you should live. Its your karma after all, do you want to put that in the hands of others who are misinforming you? And is your way the way of others? Should you be telling others they are right or wrong in their choices?

Re: We are not one!
 

Vidya,

You raise some interesting points.

I read that 99.99% of lead in lead-acid batteries is actually recycled into new batteries. It is one of the industries that gets this basically right. (Lead being so heavy is easy to separate I guess).

It has been estimated that more greenhouse gas is emitted in the production of a solar panel than the solar panel will save during its working life ... however: There are still good reasons to have solar: remote areas is one - helps avoid using inefficient small scale generators, and best of all: independence - one less link to the system.

A..

Re: We are not one!
 

There is no such thing as a greenhouse gas. Its a false theory. If the theory were true then the atmosphere would warm up, but the planet surface is where heating is occurring. Global warming is from the sun! not from us.

I built a solar system to be free from the grid and to be in control of my own situation. Micro-Hydro would be my power of choice, and maybe direct mechanical, not electrical.... However, the older I get the more candle light appeals to me :) and as i become more techno phobic i need less energy anyway lol...

My battery 'problems' really relate to the nasty exploitation of people and environments at the point of extraction. Lead is so expensive I am sure they do recycle it, but recycling generally is inefficient and harmful. And not everyone is conscientious enough to recycle their batteries. Better to not produce waste in the first place....there is much to be said for a simple life off the gid and as far out of the sytem as possible.

Re: We are not one!
 

You are correct. I meant carbon emissions. In fact David Wilcock found on the NASA sites that there is evidence that each planet in our Solar System is undergoing similar "climate" change.

I also agree that there is no such thing as climate change being caused by carbon emissions - but that said, it can't help either.

Koyaanisqatsi applies.

Re: We are not one!
 

Once upon a time we developed a taste for meat and now it has become a habit

When we eat flesh we also eat the emotions ingrained in the fibers of the animal
So spiritual wise its better to restrict the eating of conscious beings like animals

It is believed that a ceremonially dedication of the animal to God also removes the passions in the animals flesh so its better suited for us to eat it


Now if we are to evolve and advance emotionally mentally and spiritually as a community and as individuals we cannot continue the brutal slaughter of our fellow conscious beings

It is common sense

We should all make an effort to restrict the intake of animal flesh


There will be no slaughterhouses in the new garden

Re: We are not one!
 

But its ok to slaughter 'innocent' conscious plants? what is your distinction? Surely when we reach the 'higher' awareness you talk of we will realise plants are conscious living organisms also...

maybe we all live on prana at this point?

[i would say, sort of off topic, a forest garden would be a nice place to live, to live off the fruiting bodies so as to propagate their life cycles]

Re: We are not one!
 

You dont see the distinction...?

Either you are spiritually adept or living in lalaland lol no offense

You dont see the distinction...?

Really you dont see it...?

Come on you see it lol

Re: We are not one!
 

No. I dont see it anymore. I became veggie 25 years ago and I havent eaten meat since. In the last years I started working with the shamans and visited the stone worlds, and the plant worlds and other amazing places. Plants are alive, they have a consciousness, they 'feel' pain. I genuinely do not see the difference. Though I still choose not to eat meat.

Seriously, please explain to me the difference. Dont challenge my belief system, explain your own.

Re: We are not one!
 

As the majority of the people on the planet openly eat insects I wonder what people think of that? Are insects more evoled than plants? :naughty:
Even veggies are responsible for the death of insects. They are killed while harvesting the crop and are killed in the process of making food, next time you are eating your bread don't worry about the tiny little pieces of fly you are eating, in feeding ourselves it is impossible not to kill something.
So if by causing the death of something gives you a karmatic debt then we are all massively in debt.


Stick around krystal you might just learn something :thumb_yello:

Re: We are not one!
 

lol.. This forum is better then any other forum I have registered with when it comes to friendly arguments. More then one vegetarian thread has been posted here and they always become very heated though.

If they want to put t-OX-IN their bodies that is their choice. :lol3:

777 made some good posts about meat recently in his epic thread:
http://projectavalon.net/forum/showp...postcount=1669
http://projectavalon.net/forum/showp...postcount=1670

This will probably anger meat eaters more, but this thread has all the typical meat eaters responses:
Try to compare killing animals too plants: check
Try to justify their actions by saying the animal enjoyed their life before killing it: Check
Try to justify the murder by giving thanks: Check

Deep down inside, if they were able to put their pleasure for the taste of meat aside, they know that killing animals is wrong, simply by the reactions of terror and fighting for life the animals have as they slit their throats. I've spent time with farm animals and they enjoy every minute of life, at least the ones who are free-range. They know, there is no way the killing can be justified at its core, despite how mad it gets them. :thumbdown:



Here a is a recent response I made to a question concerning out teeth:

We need these teeth because many types of veggies and nuts, and so forth are much tougher then meat.

Animals who instinctively eat meat have a digestive system to handle the job. The jaw joints of these animals an up and down vertical hinge, and there teeth are overlapping, sheering fangs made for tearing flesh, and they also have claws. Where is our claws?

By contrast, herbivores such as horses and humans have a sliding jaw joint and flat, grinding back molars that allow them to chew in a rotary motion for grinding grains and greens.

The stomach acid of of carnivorous animals is twenty times that of herbivores because the digestion of flesh requires a lot of acid. If a herbivore (like you or me) eats flesh, the body must drastically increase its acid production, which upsets natural pH balance necessary to maintain health. Carnivorous animals have colons that are constructed to guarantee quick elimination. The bowel of a carnivore is smooth and it takes waste through a relatively short, straight route of elimination.

The bowels of humans, in contrast, is full of pouches and indentations. It follows a long and windy path full of sharp turns. Fatty, processed, and cooked foods cannot pass through this route easily or quickly. (only living foods, full of digestive enzymes and fiber can move quickly through this maze.) The end result of today's average diet is a grim but indisputable statistic: The greater the intake of cooked and processed foods and animal products, the greater the occurrence of disease.
