When seventy-year-old Bernard Shaw was asked about his health, he replied: “Great, great, but the doctors are bothering me, claiming that I will die because I don’t eat meat.” When ninety-year-old Shaw was asked the same question, he replied: “Great. Nobody bothers me anymore. All the doctors who tormented me, claiming that I could not live without meat, have already died.”
Sri Sathya Sai Baba:
“Like the food, so is the mind,
as is the mind, so are the thoughts,
as are the thoughts, so is the behavior,
such is the behavior, such is the fate.”
"When we sit down to eat,
we feel light
and weightlessness;
after eating we should feel
the same lightness and weightlessness.”
"A person strives to change
natural products for
to please your tastes,
and thus destroys
the very essence of life contained in it.”
“Those who feed on the carcasses of killed animals get the worst from them.” Leo Tolstoy
“Is it worth asking why Pythagoras gave up meat? Personally, I am more interested in what state of mind was in the person who first touched bloody flesh with his lips and tasted carrion, what circumstances forced him to set his tables with dishes from decomposed carcasses and call food what just recently mooed and bleated, moved and breathed... .
For some reason, we do not eat lions and wolves, which pose a threat to our lives, but instead kill harmless, docile creatures that cannot cause us any harm, because they have neither claws nor fangs. For the sake of a piece of meat, we deprive them of sun, light and life, to which they have the same right as we do.” Plutarch
“Give instructions only to those who seek knowledge after discovering their ignorance.
Provide help only to those who do not know how to clearly express their cherished thoughts.
Teach only those who are able, having learned about one corner of a square, to imagine the other three.” Confucius
"Do not be embarrassed by the fact that if you refuse meat food all your close family will attack you, judge you, laugh at you. If meat-eating were an indifferent matter, meat-eaters would not attack vegetarianism; they are irritated because in our time they are already aware of their sin, but are not yet able to free themselves from it." L.N. Tolstoy
Chew food thoroughly. “The sages said this: if you chew 50 times, you won’t get sick; if you chew 100 times, you will live a very long time; if you chew 150 times, you will become immortal.”
Remember! Everything that went into your mouth went into your blood. Everything that got into the blood went into all the organs. Everything that has accumulated and rotted inside you, it all comes out through the excretory systems. Skin is the most large organ excretory system with billions of micro-holes.
“The disease exists only where it is needed and lasts as long as necessary.” Herbert Shelton
Here I will allow myself to quote Zeeland again: “Some will do this with the best intentions, wishing you well with all their might: “After all, you are foolish, give up this nonsense and live like everyone else.” normal people!” Others will perceive your behavior as a challenge and react accordingly with hostility. All these “restless” people, in essence, have one thing in common - to put you in your place: “Where are you going, are you better than us? Live like us and don’t twitch!” Following the rule of their pendulum, they persistently force you to adhere to the same principles. But the question is: what makes them so zealously defend their foundations? After all, you don’t impose your opinion on others and don’t try to change anyone?
The paradox is that if you began to actively prove to everyone around you that you were right, they would simply laugh, calmly giving up on your eccentricities. But when you confidently follow your own path without asking anyone, this causes the indignation of others. Their anxiety is caused by subconscious doubts about their own rightness, despite the fact that the mind is firmly lulled by established stereotypes.”
“I’m not looking at your plate, please don’t look at my plate. I go my way, and you go yours.”
The following phrase also works well: “Are you and your children healthy enough to give me some advice? No? So we decided to go a different route.” In response, you may hear: yes, at my age (40, 50, 60 years old) you will not look like that yet. But even modern orthodox medicine has long established that the reserve human body is 300 years. What are we even talking about? Close people are so worried about us that they forget the well-known saying: “The road to hell is paved with good intentions.” And if your relationship with your relatives was already strained, then a raw food diet can add fuel to the fire, or rather become another stumbling block and misunderstanding. Therefore, be prepared for certain possible difficulties, but WITHOUT PROGRAMMING yourself for it.
There is no need to convince or persuade anyone, it is of no use: “The teacher comes when the student is ready.” If I see that a person is interested, he asks something, I will happily answer the questions and tell you everything I know (well, not right away, of course). But I don’t advise anyone to be the first to tell someone, especially an unprepared one. Sooner or later, a person will reach out to you for information. ALLOW YOURSELF TO BE YOURSELF AND OTHERS TO BE OTHERS!
Only what is natural is beautiful. F. Voltaire
