C.W. Leadbeater - essay:
note- the author, like many others in his time, uses "He" or "Man" almost 100% of the time- this is not a negation of women, this was the wording to paraphrase and refer to HuMan.. human kind..
This is quite different from what i usually do here, but i hope you find it interesting regardless- there'll be a music mix about food soon! i made this because i love it!.. haha, I've listened to these videos several times and i wanted to fuse the two together to limit redundancy as well as emphasize certain aspects of the messages therein.. and, as far as this channel is concerned, it just wouldn't feel right uploading this without a lil music involved.. Well, i dunno if binaural beats are considered music or just tones, but i thought it was appropriate and unique.. if it's wack, my bad, but there's several videos of this in it's pure form if that suits you better..
I admit, I'm vegetarian- not even a year into being 100%, although i hung on the fence with this for over a decade... I owe a lot of those inklings to my sister who quit eating meat for over a dozen years- she's been my north star of inspiration.. I'm not your typical stereotypical veggie head.. Living in France and traveling a lot pushed back my intentions, but i've seen too many glaring signs over the past 2 years to not fully act on my gut feelings about the whole idea of eating animals.. With that background, it was effortless to make the transition and i appreciate my new lifestyle.. Through my awakening process and evolution in consciousness, it has come to be clear as day that vegetarianism & veganism are on the higher paths towards that spiritual progress.. I refuse to participate, perpetuate, or practice the continuation of the unnecessary pain & suffering of life.. But Derek, what about the pain and suffering of plants? a question i hear all too often, which i answer quite simply- the plant kingdom is in a different realm of consciousness, almost dreamlike- they do not have individuated consciousness like animals do.. if we can't eat plants either, what would one suggest we ingest? There are holistic ways to cultivate vegetables, grains, fruits, seeds and nuts.. most of the time, this does not involve the slaughter of the plant to get its fruit anyway.. Now if we spray the poor things with pesticides, mutate and splice its genes/DNA, then we have problems where the foods and nutrition we were supposed to be ingesting are less pure and wholesome which does not help the body stay healthy, but rather the opposite.. unfortunately the industrialized large scale agriculture techniques are not too sound and the crop rotation in respect to soil enrichment is lacking big time, but we can turn it around.
being awake means not living in contradiction and i just have to laugh thinking of how long it took me to realize that and re-evaluate what i was doing to finally change some things..
If you eat meat, the intentions of this video are not to demonize, judge or condemn you.. It's to give you the opportunity to listen to some insights that are rarely spoken about vegetarianism from a very intelligent man who wrote this almost a century ago.. Just like with most things of major change, it's a process and the body (& mind) will most likely need time to transition to a new diet or way of living.. At the very start however (and along the way), you have to have patience and an open hearted/minded discussion with yourself.. weigh out the reasons presented in this video to the reasons you currently have..
i put together two playlists in the past regarding health and nutrition.. One playlist is a depository for all sorts of documentaries which i haven't gone through much at all, so they could be hit or miss- i make these things for myself to watch and learn equally as much ;) https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLNm0aknjTAaVmjaL96iENmbnO-wT2Gfo4
The other playlist is more lecture oriented focusing on the esoteric views and practices of nutrition with both original videos used here in there too https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLNm0aknjTAaVajeeV9k9ULrmldvzxnT
