SPIRITUAL NUTRITION AFFECTS OUR PHYSICAL NUTRITION

Some simple things to think about in the golden years.
It is not all inclusive and one size does not
fit all but many of these things are universal to all of us and are things that we have the power to do.
Just some tidbits to snack on and maybe eat for dinner.

-We all watch tv, we all listen to the radio, we all listen to people and everyone has a different opinion about everything.

Solution: Follow the principle of "independent investigaton of truth"

We don't know what to eat and what is or is not healthy for us.

Solution: Follow the spiritual principle of "moderation" and "educate yourself" on nutrition.
Take responsibility for your life, when you still can, and don't say others are responsible for your actions.

We see the medical establishment telling us we need this or that drug or we are going to die.
We have the spiritualists tell us that we can cure diseases with all kind of chants, prayers, etc.

Solution: Follow the principle that "religion and science complement each other" and folllow
the principle of "independent investigation of truth". Get a second and third opinion or even more if you are
diagnosed with a serious condition.

We see the establishment telling us we have to stay in the system when we cannot take care of our own selves, often
sqandering our material gains for those that are left.

Solution: Collaborate and consult with other like-minded people and create a facility in all communities where
you can still have a life within a facilitty that upholds the principle that Human Rights are God Given Rights, respects
your wishes and does not take away your human nobility.

We see the health care system prolonging life with artificial means because it creates a great economy for
the medical establishment and prolongs your suffering and intereferes with the natural process of
transitioning to the next life.

Solution: Write a living will stating your preferences, and giving a copy to your family, and put the orginal in
a safe deposit box or a place that is safe and give access only to a person you absolutely trust. Make is explicitly
clear that you want your wishes.

The establishment/society sets mandatory retirement ages and you want to keep working.

Solution: Leave the company when they want you to and create a whole new life, on your your own terms,
dedicating yourself to the "betterment of mankind". Read the 5 Year plan, understand it, and put it in
to action in your own life.

Kind of lost in how to live your life?

Solution: Read Prescrption for Living by Ruhiyyih Khanum

Love to All
