The only bits I can find in the Ra material are these:
I'm quite happy not taking any position on this for the moment. Biological existence is such, that you have to kill to live, so then it just becomes a matter of which is ethical to kill and which isn't, and while I haven't read the meat thread (glancing at a few posts was enough to see that the apple cart fell over :-), it appears that its not as clear cut as some make it out to be.
I can see where you are coming from, Diana, and I commend your efforts in raising awareness, I just wonder if using animal cruelty as a means to denounce meat eating is... maybe painting it all with a single stroke... Perhaps the answer lies in ethical sourcing of animal products, which is increasingly happening... I think... or maybe hope!
Quote:Questioner: In dietary matters, what would be the foods that one would include and what would be the foods that one would exclude in a general way for the most or the greatest care of one’s bodily complex?
Ra: I am Ra. Firstly, we underline and emphasize that this information is not to be understood literally but as a link or psychological nudge for the body and the mind and spirit. Thus it is the care and respect for the self that is the true thing of importance. In this light we may iterate the basic information given for this instrument’s diet. The vegetables, the fruits, the grains, and to the extent necessary for the individual metabolism, the animal products. These are those substances showing respect for the self. In addition, though this has not been mentioned, for this instrument is not in need of purification, those entities in need of purging the self of a poison thought-form or emotion complex do well to take care in following a program of careful fasting until the destructive thought-form has been purged analogously with the by-products of ridding the physical vehicle of excess material. Again you see the value not to the body complex but used as a link for the mind and spirit. Thus self reveals self to self.
Quote:Questioner: Would Ra please mention which foods are highly probable in not causing any spasming in the instrument’s digestive system?
Ra: I am Ra. The liquids not containing carbonation, the well-cooked vegetable which is most light and soft, the well-cooked grains, the non-fatted meat such as the fish. You may note that some recommended foodstuffs overlap allergies and sensitivities due to the juvenile rheumatoid arthritic distortions. Further, although sugar such as is in your sweetened desserts represents a potential, we may suggest that it be included at this period for aforementioned reasons.
