Hi there, As I have said in the subject I would really like to know for certain if, to achieve physical immortality completely, you need to achieve fruitarianism/breatharianism first? I am currently a vegetarian and I was wondering if this is enough (not that I wouldn't consider aiming to achieve fruitarianism/breatharianism). The other thing I have a question about is whether eating plants/vegetables is taking life in a way that would inhibit immortality? I know this maybe sounds like a silly question but as it has been recognised that we should not take life in order to sustain our own lives and certainly not if we are wanting to begin the path towards immortality, but is eating plants/vegetables in fact the same as eating animals for food? Would really appreciate some feed back on this and hopefully some clarification. Thank you in advanceIP: Logged |

hello i personally don't believe that it's a necessary step... as Randall is fond of saying " there are many paths to Rome " possibly what Linda was suggesting is that once you are on the path to physical immortality it becomes "easier" to become a fruitarian and then a breatharian... ------------------ ...there is no "I"...

Thanks for your thoughts. What are your views about 'taking the life of plants' so to speak?IP: Logged |

Did you read "The Secret Life of Plants"? i didn't read it yet, but read about it. apparently plants has perception or feeleing or both, though they have no nervous system that will cause them pain when they are being slaughtered. When they sense the knife is near, they "pass out". this used to comfort Linda, who wasn't comfortable when cutting vegetables. She said it's important to ask forgiveness from the plants we kill. So it is clear why becoming a fruitarian or a breatharian can have importance. In Eden Adam and Eve didn't eat anything but fruits, so fruitarianism may be important to making this Earth a paradise again.IP: Logged |

have read " Secret Life of Plants " and i strongly recommend it there is truth in becoming a fruitarian - but only if one is actually physically capable... there are instances of humans who require animal protein in some amount to maintain health... remember that you can't be immortal if your body is unhealthy... which is also why Linda recommended following "her" fifteen year plan... please keep in mind that Linda was not the only teacher to advocate physical immortality... she was simply the first to bring it to the masses, if you will but, not all fruitarians, breatharians, or vegetarians will be immortal... ------------------ ...there is no "I"...

Hi emitres.. Linda claimed that the story about humans need for proteins is a lie, so I don't know how she would have answered to the specific cases you mentioned. I wonder. As for physical immortality and nutrition, there are many vegetarians who don't even dream about it. I don't know concerning fruitarians and breatharians, since I didn't read about them in other books (excluding Star Signs)' but I guess a person can live on fruits or on air and still decide to die. The point is that the intention matters. If you wish to become immortal and does some steps toward it, you will find your teachers and begin the road toward physical immortality and enlightenment alike. IP: Logged |

Ayelet - yes, you're correct about intention... but even with that one may still find that, in their current incarnation, they can not achieve physical immortality... much of it still depends on your "soul contract" - not personally a fan of the term but will suffice - and their karmic obligations

You are right, though I think that, since there are no coincidences, a person may find himself or herself attracted to the right spiritual path for them.IP: Logged |

Hmmm... this is interesting. Particularly b/c last night I was cutting up some sweet potatoes and... it felt weird. I mean the potatoes felt very much alive, as some still had a few roots dangling from their body (which is creepy in its own right) - and there I was, chopping away its composition with my super sharp knife. Then I popped the dead potatoes in the oven, as if they hadn't been through enough already! I'm starting to "feel" veggies and roots more than ever before.......

Follow your conscience. What you think is what makes the most impact on you. But as a vegetarian already, it's a short trip to fruitarianism. Remember, many fruits are treated as vegetables in cooking, but they are still fruit. Anything containing seeds is a fruit. Cucumbers, squash, zucchini, eggplant, and many many others can make for quite a healthy and varied diet. IP: Logged |

My diet consists of mostly fruits. I love the feeling of euphoria a large fruit diet gives me. It's fun and delicious! IP: Logged |

You probably need to throw some nuts and seeds in there also.------------------ "Cooking is like love. It should be entered into with abandon or not at all." Harriet Van Horne IP: Logged |

How do you guys get around body decay?And may I ask what kind of life you have? It must be a good one to consider living it forever. Kudos to you if it is. What are you going to do with all that time? You will live knowing any mortal friends will die, so why bother for anything but fleeing moments of friendship, but then you get to face the long cold stare of eternity down. Can you handle that?

People are going to die in the life of mortals, too. Only dead bodies decay. You are a brand new person with new cells every seven years. ------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you."

I Corinthians 15:51Not everyone will experience this transformation, however. Many people will choose, at the soul level, to pass on before Earth reaches that time. Still others will leave because their body will lack the Light that will enable them to survive in the higher dimensional level."
