On diet

Overview
The best way to move forward in ones spiritual life is by making simple but powerful changes to our life style habits. Diet is such a fundamental life style habit that we sometimes neglect its powerful influence on health, not to mention the myriads of conflicting advice out there.

Trust humanity’s history when it comes to diet. Traditional cultures all share the simple advice below. Please understand the below advice is not a diet it’s a way of life and these changes if followed will create true freedom in your life. In the beginning it’s good to be guided; later on you will need no advice from anyone you will be a master of your own destiny, with the added benefit of radiant health.

It’s very hard to develop spiritually without a strong physical foundation. The inner spiritual realms are very very subtle, so if your body aches it will distract you from the more subtle realms.
