Quotes of Wisdom
from his book concentration and meditation: Health depends on the purity of blood. The blood supply needs oxygen and certain chemicals. Oxygen is taken from the air; the chemicals are contained in food. remember that the sole biological purpose of our many and varied meals is to supply the body with the raw materials with which it renews expended tissue and keeps itself at an even temperature. Do not let your habits become too fixed. The perfectly trained body can eat anything or go without. If you should be forced to eat what you do not like, or to overeat, do so cheerfully, and the next day eat nothing at all until nature has restored her equilibrium. It is far better to accommodate yourself to environment than to make yourself a nuisance to your friends and a laughing stock to those who are all too ready to judge a man by his inessentials.
and from his book Walk on: Action and reaction are equal and opposite. From heaven to earth there hangs a pendulum, and he who pushes the pendulum must suffer the swing back until the disturbed equilibrium is restored. This is the law which the east calls karma, the law that in every act there is its own reaction.
Anything that nature produces seems to be perfect. and anything that man makes seems to be imperfect.
As civilized man's diet gradually became more unnatural he began to suffer not only from disturbances of fat metabolism but also from carbohydrate and protein indigestion, resulting in a general toxemia of the blood. This is the primary cause of many, perhaps all, diseases.
Yet pain, from a mere twinge to the most exquisite torture of a kidney stone, is the body's best protective device. For example, it makes you keep a broken arm quiet so that your body can get to work.
There is no factory in existence that can remove carbon dioxide from the air, produce its own oxygen, and then change the whole thing into carbohydrate with the addition of a little sunshine. Yet this complex process occurs simply and with little effort in a blade of grass.
Let us make our bodies healthy with righteous food. We can thus enter into the miracles of the universe and enjoy a profound eternal life.
From his play called The magic spectacle (about how miraculous nature is) No camera can compare with your eyes. No airplane can compare your heart. No building can compare with your body cells. The world is big and you are young. The only thing you need is health. If you know the secret of health and observe it, then you will gain freedom and independence. How wonderful life is if you apply this principle of life by yourself.
In the times of Jesus, Buddha and Lao Tsu, people did not know this industrial poison called sugar. This is quite apparent because they did not speak of it. But were they alive today, they would be the first to advise us against it.
Happiness or misery, health or sickness, freedom or slavery-all depend upon the manner in which we conduct our daily lives and activities. Our conduct is dictated by our judgment. It, in turn, is a result of our comprehension of the structure of the world and the infinite universe.
You are what you eat.
Irrigators lead the water where they will; fletchers shape the arrow. Carpenters bend wood to their will; wise men shape themselves.
Letter of Master M. to A. P. Sinnett I tell you a profound truth in saying that if you but choose wisdom all other things will be added unto it - in time. |
