The Road from Healthy Eating to Spirituality
By
5 years ago I started a regimen to lose the weight exercise was not peeling.
I started introducing better foods to my normal American diet of too many calories through foods my body didn’t recognize. I was surprised how changing my diet could eliminate ten pounds that my eight hours of exercise a week couldn’t impact.
It soon became a game of how much good food could I add and how much bad food could I eliminate without being hungry. As I moved to eating more salads, less sugar, more fruit, less flour, more vegetables, less red meat, less processed and restaurant foods, the pounds started melting away.
When I moved to the beach in May of 2010, I reinvigorated a depreciated exercise program and moved to eating raw. The pounds and inches started melting like I had unlocked a secret code. I then had to wonder when I wanted it to stop. 40 pounds later from the start, I figured it was enough.
At the same time in May, I started posting to my websites every day. I started with the natural topics of health and fitness because I knew and experienced them. Because I was writing, I also came to understand the creative process and how it could be sustained seven days a week.
The research for my writing started in the topics closest to my experiences and then began to spread to new ground. I let it flow rather freely without goals of where I wanted it to head. I only knew that I wanted it to be continuously interesting to me and hoped I educated and entertained my readers.
I read several books a month and was blessed with the ability to read fast. I would read in the afternoons and then see what assembled in my mind in the morning before I wrote. In January of 2011 I accelerated the process reading a book or two almost every day.
Over the months I have covered the brain, thinking, creativity, innovation, design, economic recovery, global warning, inspiration, personality, happiness, flow, love, spirituality, consciousness, quantum physics, chaos theory, and have finally arrived at God.
I have to marvel that this process flowed on its own without concern or direction on my part. In my last book read “The God Code” by Greg Braden, I realized I have arrived at the summit.
He was a senior computer systems analyst and retired to spend 12 years researching and seeking answers to one of the oldest questions of who are we and where did we come from.
As a quick unjust summary of his findings, he analyzed the teachings and science of the ancients found mostly in the Kabbala and Torah. The early sciences of man were alchemy and astrology. The Torah is written in the Hebrew language in which all letters of the alphabet have a numerical value. The science of equating letters to values is gematria.
In a complex conversion of alphabet to numeric values and finding combinations with modern science in the periodic tables of elements, he and his team could make determinations that the secret teachings underlying the stories of the Torah theorized on the origination of man and the Universe.
Modern String Theory holds that the science of the Kabbala explaining the ten elements of life and the Big Bang are accurate. Translating the early Biblical comments about existence of Air, Fire, and Water to science he found that certain universal elements are responsible for each.
The first element out of the Big Bang was hydrogen. The next most common elements are oxygen and nitrogen. In the earths crust, mans body, air, water, and the Sun’s heat, these are the common elements.
The main elements of DNA, the source of all life are hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen. The translation of the name of God, Yahweh YHVH, as given to Moses on Sinai into numerical values can be compared to atomic mass of the elements on the Periodic Tables.
Cutting it too short to do it justice, the letters of the name YHVH, God, are equal in value to hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen. These are odorless invisible gases but the one element found in man that gives them form is carbon.
So when we say God is in us and in all things, we see that these elements are the reasons we could justify that statement. In our spiritual feelings that there is something greater than the reality we sense and that the answers we seek are in us, this gives it new meaning.
If our lives are co-creations with the creator, that is because we are one.
Please excuse the short cuts and any inaccuracies that I may have interpreted, but I think you get the idea. I welcome you to read his book and decide for yourself.
