Is There a Link Between Food Habits, Meditative skills and Self Control?
(Detailed article by Swati Prakash)
We live in a society in which people can at times harm each other and various innocent animals and are often unable to change own behaviour. The reason some people cannot control various sexual or violent urges or are aggressive and dominating could be the same as the reason they have stress and anger issues. High cholesterol and eating the wrong foods.
Eating animal products and more processed and fattening foods makes you have a poor sense of control and self discipline as your blood flow is erratic. You also become hot headed and easy to arouse and cannot think properly. Such people may also lack intuition or an inner sense of right and wrong, or empathy and a sense of how others feel. Their hormones take over and testosterone rises whether as adolescents or grown ups. They also might lack a moral capacity to choose right from wrong.
Intuition and empathy are the least developed of all traits in most people in the Matrix, and so are magical skills and mind power. A typical human has become a mundane and materially enslaved person than one with the right amount self control and spiritual power to direct and channel their own energy.
A normal human would be repelled by ugly pornographic images and horrific violence but these people like negative, cruel, horror films and dirty images even more. They also are super crazy for food as of they live to eat. Gluttony is a trait they have and are infact proud of. They do not think of other animals as persons but as food and this changes everything. Even upon watching documentaries such as Dominion on youtube, dark minds justify violence as they are slave to habits.
They react lashing out or upset very easily or can be controlling towards others but lacking self control. They also seem to be unable to stop, look within, self reflect, attend to the needs of self and others and to understand things wisely. They keep exchanging rude messages, bad comments, argue irrationally and talk negatively. They also like dirty jokes, f words and rude slang as well as dark and sarcastic humour. Some are also are in codependent relationships and rarely happy in silence or alone as they need others ‘badly’. Mental health problems are commonly found as people are unable to find own peace and are not taught self healing skills. If medicated they are fully dependent on the medical systems and lack freewill.
It also gives people poor hygiene sense if the eat animal products. So they have a bad stomach and gut making them irritable…as well as bad smelling bodies and a lust for secretions such as animal muscles, animal flesh, bodily discharges, mayo, cheese, filthy runny eggs and strong smelling milk products. They also like foul odours, sweat, high calories and strong flavours such as bacon, pepperoni, sweets and chillies.
All these are either called Tamasic foods (death and negative energy causing) as well as Rajasic foods in yoga (that attract more aggressive beings).
Tamasic foods and behaviour are linked to causing unconsciousness and depression in ourself or others while Rajasic foods cause dominating and angry behaviour.
The right food is Sattvic or Healing in nature. Sattvic food is our true food as humans. We are not carnivores or even omnivores. We are herbivores related to other primates that are primarily Frugivore.
Sattvic diet and lifestyle is totally formed of a healthy plant based, less processed, and less heavily flavoured foods and a clean, hygenic and sensible lifestyle of moderation and ethics.
Even after going plant based or vegan some may struggle for a few years trying to control a lust for physical bodies and secretions and pine for similar items instead of healthy and whole foods and raw foods, and may display anger or irrational behaviour.
This is because food plays a key role since our birth in shaping our personality and also our DNA over generations. If we are in a heavy animal eating culture since childhood we are prone to having it also in our DNA in our value systems and prone to imitating others such as family members who have extra aggressive behaviour traits. Social conditioning is also about valuing an aggressive dominating personality of those who win and succeed in physical and outer life rather than the more inner and softer attributes such as empathy and sensitivity. Trying to be like a carnivore or cruel, physically more ruthless, trying to tell others what to do and not being able to respect their valid opinions or thoughts may be part of this.
These are all aspects of a social system that teaches people that muscles, physical body, aggression, raw power, sexual prowess, and lust are the only good things ever as it helps people sell them all kinds of material objects instead of focusing on what is within…our innate spiritual or inner power to create reality.
Very few cultures are truly spiritual. Most are fear based (deity oriented and external focused on books, myths, personality figures, and stories) rather than on a focus on developing your own personal inner powers.
There are two key solutions.
- Teach people how to control their own mind and body, breath and energy levels, and to relax or focus thoughts as necessary at will.
- Teach people to control their lust, gluttony, and greed for food, sex, outside things, trying to possess humans or control other animals. We can be self dependent, healthy in attitude and have inner peace.
Without teaching some form of mindfulness, inner self reflection, meditation and a focus on inner self and inner magical power we have a lower chance of helping others transform their habits and behaviours. They will just imitate what they see around and be unable to think and reflect or display understanding.
