In regards to eating meat

[Patrick]

...It doesn't matter to me, since I don't need any scientific study to tell me anything about meat eating...

Exactly! That's what it comes down to in the end anyway. It's not that I am shying away from debating the scientific point of view. It's just that I have debated the science of nutrition (including the China Study) for countless hours already. And in my experience, nothing positive ever came out of it. I mean, the whole point would be to try to convince the other party and from a spiritual standpoint such an exercise is not only futile but IMHO even counter productive.

I am shying away from trying to make my other selves understand my point of view. I prefer trying to understand the point of view of my other selves instead.

Oh, no wonder! Sounds like you weren't getting nearly enough calories!

Well, that was the point at the time. Trying to lose extra fat.

To be healthy, raw vegans actually eat a LOT of food, including lots of fruits, nuts and seeds.

Were you eating sprouted beans? Since they aren't edible raw...

New raw vegans are often shocked at how much food they eat. Raw foods digest very rapidly - think of it as jet fuel - so raw vegans actually eat a lot more volume of food.

So a very common reason people quit is that they were too hungry, because they just weren't eating enough.

"Were you eating sprouted beans?" Nope.

I was eating a lot in terms of bulk but not in terms of calories and the bulk is what's suppose to make you feel full on this diet.

That is actually what gave me a nudge toward my awakening. Because I thought that what was happening to me was very improbable, if not impossible, from a scientific point of view.

Cool! But what was impossible/improbable? Your awakening?

No, I meant the fact that I am always hungry no matter what I do. The only exception is when using the ECA stack, which is unsustainable.

I'm convinced that facing this as the catalyst that it is and looking into the metaphysical side of the issue, I will finally resolve it.
