Introduction
rather than sowing the seeds of future suffering through heedlessly abusing life each day.
If we form the habit of daily eating and drinking only for health - physical, mental and spiritual - we will find a growing sense of well-being, accompanied by the energy and happiness that come when one is no longer bound by cravings and appetites. We should not merely live to eat, blindly obeying our sense of taste, regardless of the consequences to ourselves and others; but we must strive to eat to live, in order to find peace within ourselves and be a source of love and happiness for all beings around us. We can rebuild and mold our body daily, psychologically and physically, while we avoid enervation through mental or physical excesses of any kind.
Each person should take enough time and interest to study his problem so that he or she can live intelligently and assist nature in tuning the body and mind into its abounding rhythm and beauty. To understand life, we must be in tune with it.
Those who are destined to look for true health will find it.
When Life and Love become our interest sublime,
We do not need a personal self to shine.
Life's own radiance exceeds all when we truly forget self and its limitations and sufferings, by being lost in Love and Life as the only jewel of Reality worth living for.
