This is my experience of vegetarianism:

 

For 13 years in the 70's and 80's I was strictly vegetarian (not vegan) for

all the commonly expressed spiritual and health reasons. I can't remember

why now, but at one point I began eating eggs. It threw me into turmoil. My

identity as *A Vegetarian* was shattered.

 

Since I recognize the one veil over true identity of Self is small self

identity - formed of values, comparisons, memories, expectations and

judgements - I took the oppportunity to let that fragment of identity be

destroyed.

 

Now I eat whatever my intuition tells me is okay in the moment.

I did the vegetarian and fruitarian thing too. Then I rather

let go of it, and now eat what *seems* right. Today that

was Taboule, oj, and yoghurt.

 

The one thing I find will really take my kundalini down is

a glass of wine, which once in awhile I'll drink intentionally

to bring the k down. But usually not.

 

On the other hand, music will bring the k up, as will the Sun for

some reason I haven't figured out, but have several cds with

beautiful songs and mantras which in certain keys bring the

k up, not all mantra songs do, I think it is dependent on ourselves

as to which musical key effects us. I think it is different for

each one of us and we have to discover which combinations

work for ourselves... it's something i stumbled upon rather

than read or learned, something that just happened ... :-)

LOL doesn't sound very learned or researched, but it does

work and it is beautiful, I am so happy with my Puccini tonight.

 

Anyway, interesting thread, thanks all :-)

I want to eat everything, a rock, the venom of a snake, a star, a black

hole, air and be eaten by everything. So i may digest and be digested by

myself to the very last drop. HUMmmmmmmmmm

 

I did eat horse meat last night, and i dreamed and moved so much in my

bed... The horse was not happy, or is it the butcher, ot the one cooking

it? I do not know, but it had an effect on my digestion. Intuition

knows...

I would not say that of all wines, and of course the most important the

compagny in wich it is took. Wine may be used to attune two person two

each other on very subtle level. A way to share "karma" on a

"telephatic" level, if i may say. To break under the ice even more in

subtility. In remember those Chateau d'Yquiem 1949 or this bottle of

cognac from 1789, i took with my father in 1989 to celebrate the

liberation fight from slavery of the haitian black people from 1989 to

1804, like the french revolution. I think it is still working on

boosting my K as it goes now, ever more in subtle ways. Maybe only me

and my father share that specific taste from two hundred years ago. But

i guess it is not simply wine, like food is not simply food anymore.

Each thing may become sacred and an oppurtinity to grow from it, IMHO.

Part of this wish can be granted in Africa; there is a type of fly that

will lay eggs in the living body and after a time you are being eaten by

the larva while eating yourself :)

The like for and effect of sweet alcoholic beverages is shared by many

mammals; next time, feed the horse a bottle of banana liquor and then it

will be quiet for the entire night :)

>>All paths go somewhere. No path goes nowhere. Paths, places, sights,

perceptions, and indeed all experiences arise from and exist in and subside

back into the Space of Awareness. Like waves rising are not different than

the ocean, all things arising from Awareness are of the nature of

Awareness. Awareness does not come and go but is always Present. It is

Home. Home is where the Heart Is. Jnanis know the Heart to be the Finality

of Eternal Being. A true devotee relishes in the Truth of Self-Knowledge,

spontaneously arising from within into It Self. Welcome all to

a.

I also like a tibetan ceremony, that comes with the practice of the

bardo thodol. When the body, when reading this sacred book, is cut in

small piece and given to eat to all the birds flying around and

dispersed around the world by them, to help the soul find its real body.

And this other, the word of Jesus spontaneous combustion, most probably

the world was hungry for his body, to eat it so fast, in a flash.

 

Many levels to be hungry, cellular, atomic or as a cosmic whale, what

does limit the deepness of our appetite?
