- About Me:
- I started transitioning to a raw diet a week ago (5/12/08). I have been vegan for 3 years and vegetarian for 9 years prior, so that part is easy :-), but I have always eaten mostly cooked food. So far, though, I am loving it, and plan on increasing the amount of raw significantly in the coming weeks. For those who are interested, I am blogging about my experiences at www.rawchel.com.

That sounds like a good topic to discuss! Thanks Lee. I thought it would be great if raw was the final destination before ascension because I don't see people who are really into it going back to eating meat or junk food.. but maybe you meant that...
Yes but how did they know what has happened?
wow you love english stuff.
Sorry sometimes I write something and don't write it out clearly. Not so much transitioning to something, but something that comes and goes, very transitory. Like a snow ball comes and melts and thats the end of the story. People don't cry when a ...

Transitional to what? Living on light?

I'm glad you disagree with my definition of spirituality. I was thinking about that in regards to this thread actually. Most things you can analyze and chop up logically but individual preferences not so easy. I think what I was trying to mean by ...
It is so nice to know Charles' twin-in-drag is having fun!
Hi April,
We get a fair number of applicants, and it varies all the time.
It is absolutely NOT required that someone be raw for any length of time. What is required is that someone be truly open and coachable.
This is paradigm-busting stuff bas...

You are right, there is sooooo much to chose from! I suggest starting with the 80/10/10 Diet because it is based on our biological design. Once you read it, you will understand the underlying faults of all other approaches.
Whole foods are ALWAYS more nutritions than their refined counterparts.
-Oils are not whole foods
-Supplements are not whole foods
-Juices are not whole foods
You get the point :)
Also, all members of our species are identical and unique, simultaneously.
Our species shares one common design just like every other species on the planet.
That's why we are grouped into one species by biologists.
We share one set of biochemistries, that's why it's even possible to conduct studies. No commonalities, no studies.
It is for these reasons that we share one common diet. This is obvious once one begins to think about it.
Unique - “We are unique in that our perception is our reality, and each of our perceptions is unique, borne of a unique combination our experiences and our facility in exercising our various avenues for awareness. This is why each of our paths in life is unique.” -Elchanan
“Each of us develops his/her own, unique experience of life, unique interactions with others, unique perceptions, and so forth.” - Elchanan
