This issue focuses on the Spiritual Properties of Food - see below. Next month, we turn the spotlight on the #1 Health Product - stay tuned!

These days, where so much is published on nutrition, diets, and ways to improve health, it seems rather strange that the subject of the spiritual effects of food should be completely overlooked.

Before people knew of the chemical nature of food and its effects on the physical body, they were more aware of the spiritual properties of food, and the effects on the personality and emotions.

Today, it appears to have been hidden in the private teachings of various mystery schools as a subject for limited discussion for the inner circle. Maybe because very few people understand the real purpose of food.

The popular idea is that food is eaten only to maintain the chemical and physical constitution of the body and to provide energy. It is viewed purely as physical sustenance.

But, we must realise that humans are more than just a physical body, and that life and consciousness are not completely dependent on the chemical elements of food.

We do know that humankind are a very complex creation that have two divisions manifesting in their being.

1 - The physio-chemical constitution.

2 - The spiritual-conscious nature.

In the oldest of the secret or sacred writings regarding the nature of mankind's personality and character, there are references to the fact that the physical body is a necessary instrument or machine used to carry out the spiritual qualities in man's being.

The tone of voice, the look in the eyes, the creation of tenderness, sympathy, understanding, joy, happiness, sorrow... are all parts of the personality of spirit projected out through the body and mind.

We hear of people with a strong magnetic personality, which is the result of the spiritual qualities within coming out through a healthy, vibrant body. A body that is sickly, diseased, in pain, or abnormal cannot project a magnetic personality that has the ability to captivate other people.

We sometimes meet people who seem to radiate an attitude of joy, happiness, good health, optimism, love and sympathy. They make many friends easily and attract to themselves all the best experiences in life.

People love to do things for them, love to have them around, and look upon them as leaders in life.

If the body is not healthy we cannot build a positive character that reveals its best qualities. Character is not something that is made from chemical elements or nutrients, but from spirit.

Weaknesses of character always develop in those who are in poor health and badly effected by the glands of the body. Science has discovered that character and personality are attributes of the inner part of the body and mind. These have a greater bearing on our happiness and success in life. A strong character and personality attracts positive attention.

People have glands that regulate the growth and development of their physical body, and the spiritual qualities of personality and character. These glands are all connected to the spiritual side of life.

Some scientists claim that each one of us in our individual expressions and distinctive characters, are just an expression of the state of the functioning of our glands. So it is essential that the glands are working properly in order to be truly healthy and express your physical power.

There are several emotional centres within the body, and most are connected with the glands and the psychic centres (chakras) of the nervous and sympathetic nervous system.

The relation between the glands, brain, spinal nervous system, sympathetic nervous system, and the emotions or psychic centres is definite and complex.

Emotionally, we are exactly what our glands and psychic centres are manifesting in their reactions. Not only is the physical health affected by our glands functioning poorly, but also aspects of our mental health.

Spells of depression, despondency, strange nervous conditions that are annoying, painful, distressing, and many forms of mental disturbance and abnormality result from the relationship between the glands and the psychic energy centres (chakras).

These nervous and mental conditions produce emotional and psychological effects that are to do with... peaceful living, success in business, attractiveness in social life, and the enjoyment of all the divine blessings we can experience during our lifetime.

The spiritual energy flows through the body and mind via the energy centres and glands. If it flows freely we will experience a successful and full life with a magnetic personality. If it is blocked then we may have problems that effect our health, as described above.

The spiritual side of our nature is the leader that pushes us on to greater levels of being, taking us away from the physical and animal side of our nature. The great inventors, artists,writers, philosophers and thinkers have received their impulses of truth through their spiritual nature.

Human's entire environment in life from the primitive stages up to this very day have been improved because of the spiritual side of their nature and not because of the physical side.

When we analyse our source of spirituality we find that there are two main ways spirit energy enters the body. One is through the air we breathe, with its power coming from the source of all energy, the Sun. The other is through the quality of the food we eat and the water we drink.

In all 'civilised' lands the tendency is to alter nature's products before we eat them, this is a big mistake. Nature supplies food for us in its purest state, and this is the best way of using it for optimum health.

In the preparation and cooking of food so much of the better parts are thrown away. It is not necessary to only eat raw foods and not good to only eat cooked foods. A balance of the two is the best way.

According to the ancient mystics who preserved their ideas in the sacred, secret writings of the mystery schools... all living vegetable and fruit are filled with a spiritual essence which the leaves and stems have received from the sun and the moisture in the air.

This essence holds a vital energy that is necessary to the spiritual and physical side of our lives. There are many herbal extracts available that have held this vital life force in and are of great benefit to humankind.

The real cause of illness and disease lies in an imbalance of the blood cells, that weakens the nerve energy, and stops the glands from functioning correctly. The proper energy supply for the blood can be supplied in 3 ways...

1 - Through deep breathing of fresh air.

2 - Through eating natural organic food.

3 - Through drinking plenty of pure water.

Chlorophyll is the strange semi-chemical and spiritual essence in plants that gives leaves their green colour. It has something in it that is not just chemical. This supplies us with vitality and energy and is a part of the divine essence available to us.

Certain rays of the sun, necessary for the spiritual essence in life, can only be taken into the body through eating chlorophyll and no-where else. So to eat more green-leafy foods will improve your health.

Science has shown that green leafy vegetables contain a high level of essential nutrients, vitamins, minerals, and the popular term 'Eat Your Greens' is top level advice. Of course if you eat many of them organic and raw, then you are sure to receive the best qualities.

Many of these greens are available as organic and living foods, that come in powder form. These are excellent supplements to ensure you are absorbing the recommended nutrients to experience glowing health.

In summary, we see that proper breathing, along with exercise that causes deep breathing, wholesome liquids, and vital foods are essential to life. For a strong healthy body there should be a greater use of vegetables and fruit, especially green-leafy veg with a reduced amount of meat.

Watercress, dandelion, celery, green lettuce, green peas, green beans, onions used raw and added to your diet will give you more vitality and energy, vitamins, minerals and spirit essence.

In order to be sure you are absorbing nutrients, it is essential to take a good quality Multi-vitamin/mineral supplement on a daily basis.

The product I use myself and highly recommend is called Vitaforce. It is an organic green food supplement and the best complete source of nutrients I have found in many years of research.
