Guest guest Posted August 11, 1999 Report Share Posted August 11, 1999 Any comments about DHEA and other food supplements being advertised to retard the aging process. So far, I have aware of one natural method (fasting and restriction of calories), to extend life. This has been used by yogis who subsist on fruits and raw vegetables and pranayama and periodically fast. Please let us know your views on this and any scientific data that is available to support the view. Thanks. Harsha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. > > Harsha I have one ingredient responsible for the aging process, it's not food as such and all humanity is affected by this disease. In psychiatry it it is called neurosis. I am talking here only of its mild subtle form, that is very contagious and is transmitted in an invisible way in our day to day comportment in society. It's a cultural "gene" that is transmitted in an almost invisible way, so much it is common. One person is infected by it 100 of times a day. And he/se does the same to others. Here a various form it is transmitted in; Harsha: "In the video that I saw, Dalai Lama was watching cable. Some type of a fashion show I believe, with models. When the interviewer asked him whether he thought it was enjoyable he said no. I wondered why he had it on in the first place, though, if he did not enjoy it. " The Dalai Lama, on tv is not the man, he is the Dalai lama. Is actions still reflects his projections of the possible listeners. His action still contain the seed of neurosis, for those who thinks it is the man talking on tv. Talking on tv is a neurosis situation. I liked his remark about reincarnation when asked about it. After a moment of silence, he said the "Dalai Lama will reincarnate, of course". But one could clearly feel that it was the Dalai Lama talking and not the man. *** Each time someone tells you do not do this for x ethical reason, and they go doing it. They transmit shame. *** Telling to a child "go play outside" when what you are asking is leave me alone, or i need time alone. Why not simply explain that you need time alone... oh yes!!!, the child will not understand, the mind says. The pattern here again, that you transmit to the child. *** It's coming to believe that scientific research is needed to find the right food to eat, when you know at the very moment that you bring your lips on something if it's good or not. The neurosis pattern within each one, stop us to listening to our lips as deeply as they are able to, all the way to our "genetic pattern". This bring out pattern like: I eat this because science says today it is good, yet while you feel that it is not that deeply good for you. Or a deeper sense of shame is created from eating something that an ethical system to one, says it is not good. Many people in my family lived to a 100 or so, in great lucidity, my grand father on the side of my mother had his driver license up to 92. And it was a choice of his, after my grand mother died, that lead him to death and body decay in a 6 month period. What i remember of those person, is their lack of shame in whatever they where doing, and their innocent joy in life. The food they hate had nothing to do with it, much less than the pleasure they took in eating what they had and enjoying their family of 14 children's. Some will say that living hold is genetic, from looking at my direct living family of blood, that is over 100 living persons today, directly from my grand parents. The genetics, play an important role in the external body appearance up to the age of around 30. As the years pass after that you become who you made yourself to be, the coat of shame you carry starts to show on you. So i have a cousin of 50, and he looks 20 in all his faculties (another one who initiated me to meditation a 6 year old, was fun , but i have others who look 45 at 30, they like their life having reasons to do this and that. The genetics or science have nothing to do with it after a while. It's an excuse to carry our deep coat of shame or a cultural identity.

Shame, in this sense, then would be describing the feeling that is attached to one's recognition that they have "split" away from Truth? Like Adam and Eve in the Garden..... <snip> >This bring out pattern like: >I eat this because science says today it is good, yet while you feel >that it is not that deeply good for you. >Or a deeper sense of shame is created from eating something that an >ethical system to one, says it is not good. In the Johrei tradition, it is recognized that it is not the 'food' in itself that is either good or bad, healthy or unhealthy, but the attitude one brings to the table. Not only the attitude about the food being tasty, or not.... healthy or not, but the attitude in live in general. In Johrei, one is encouraged to focus the heart and the light of appreciation on whatever is set before you, and that the spirit of gratitude will bless (and remove any impurities) of anything you eat. This approach sits well with me. :-) > >Many people in my family lived to a 100 or so, in great lucidity, my >grand father on the side of my mother had his driver license up to 92. >And it was a choice of his, after my grand mother died, that lead him to >death and body decay in a 6 month period.

Although I was considered a 'desirable woman', I could see in my face a sense of weariness and a beginning of 'hardness' in my eyes. Though my figure is not what it once was, in my face now, I seem much younger, in heart and in mind. Thanks for your sharing, Melody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obesity grows mostly because our health authorities lack political will to curtail the sale of degraded foods & the corrupt ones that convince you to eat them. Even sans promotion these foods are hard to resist because the food industry has tapped into your genetic programming. During evolution our ancestors survived because their bodies developed reactions to certain tastes, smells, & mouth-feel, that taught them to seek & savor the flesh of plants & animals that provided the best nutrition. Those reactions are our legacy of foods that we deem delicious. But over the century, with complete disregard for human health, food manufacturers have extracted all these potent stimuli from their unprocessed and expensive nutritious contexts, and put them into dirt-cheap pap that is essentially devoid of nutrients. They know how taste & smell & texture spike the human appetite. Then they use the mind bending advertising to suck you in. The evidence walks our streets everyday. 60 million fat Americans are waddling testimony to the power of chemistry & advertising, to turn them into fat & sugar processing plants to line food manufacturer's pockets. - Dr Michael Colgan - 1998 Your body registers these deficiencies & turns up your appetite to make you eat more to supply the missing nutrients,. Because nutrients are scarce in our food you have to eat far too many calories to provide them. If even one nutrient remains deficient your body will continue asking for it via your appetite. A single nutrient deficiency is enough to make you fat as a hog. The simplest answer to this problem is to take supplements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you are right Melody, shame is more the recognition that one has split from Truth. More on a moral level, or conscious one. But it can come to manifest as a physical symptom as it crystallize very deep. As for the transmission of the virus, I don't believe it's automatic that the other will catch it. Some have the faculty to "clear" more than others in one day. k is part of that process, from my observation. Allot of people here understand the expression it's "k time", when it seems that the process of "immunization", or "burning" is in full gear. And others just have this gift of whipping the virus away as it is emitted. Children's have this faculty of being able to burn so fast those "virus", but on the other side they can be also imprinted so very deeply for life by a to sharp exposition to a "virus" and time is not taken to let the imprints open before they crystallize as a pattern of the character of the child. I like sharing stories with you, so here is another one. At 15 year old i went for two months in Florida with a 19 year old patient of my mother. He was diagnostic (Chronic Neurosis). I had often been exposed to the patient of my parents, playing with them, not seeing them as sick, in my virgin eyes. But it did not affect me. The money was good for that job, i was paid to make him to eat, go on the beach, give him back a taste for life, something like that. His rich parents needed a break from him. So i spent 2 months with him. When i came back my girlfriend left me after a few days, my angel eyes where not as deep as before. I could not see the difference, touch the "virus" i was infested with, in my pattern of manifestation. It was just my big first vaccine of that virus. Coming out of the Garden... The world has been totally different for a few years after that, but it was subtle in development. I guess we all have our limits where the virus may come back to us. The chinese in their torture chambers, and the CIA (love that red room torture chamber of them, where absolutely no sound echoes and that is painted in a way that you cannot distinguish the walls from the ceiling all in red, and no way to know the time, when a voice from no where works on you for weeks) and others, they will work up most of men if they want to. They exist arts in rebuilding, brainwashing, a hierarchy of "virus" pattern of acting in a human being. The publicity art is a soft version of it. Laughing, this brings out the old stories of Merlin vs Morgan (i think was her name) over Arthur. > Like Adam and Eve in the Garden..... > > <snip> > >This bring out pattern like: > >I eat this because science says today it is good, yet while you feel > >that it is not that deeply good for you. > >Or a deeper sense of shame is created from eating something that an > >ethical system to one, says it is not good. > > In the Johrei tradition, it is recognized that > it is not the 'food' in itself that is either > good or bad, healthy or unhealthy, but the > attitude one brings to the table.

When its easy to see, in general, that for some drinking is a reason to celebrate and for others one to forget.
