God, Fruits & Vegetables and Humans

EAT LOTS OF SWEET POTATOES
    this is really interesting... old but a good reminder...
 

 It's been said that God first separated the salt water from the fresh, made dry land, planted a garden, made animals and fish... All before making a human. He made and provided what we'd need before we were born. These are best & more powerful when eaten raw. We're such slow learners...
God left us a great clue as to what foods help what part of our body!
God's Pharmacy! Amazing!
A sliced Carrot looks like the human eye. The pupil, iris and radiating lines look just like the human eye... And YES, science now shows carrots greatly enhance blood flow to and function of the eyes.
A Tomato has four chambers and is red. The heart has four chambers and is red. All of the research shows tomatoes are loaded with lycopine and are indeed pure heart and blood food.
Grapes hang in a cluster that has the shape of the heart. Each grape looks like a blood cell and all of the research today shows grapes are also profound heart and blood vitalizing food.
A Walnut looks like a little brain, a left and right hemisphere, upper cerebrums and lower cerebellums. Even the wrinkles or folds on the nut are just like the neo-cortex. We now know walnuts help develop more than three (3) dozen neuron-transmitters for brain function.

Kidney Beans actually heal and help maintain kidney function and yes, they look exactly like the human kidneys.

Celery, Bok Choy, Rhubarb and many more look just like bones. These foods specifically target bone strength. Bones are 23% sodium and these foods are 23% sodium. If you don't have enough sodium in your diet, the body pulls it from the bones, thus making them weak. These foods replenish the skeletal needs of the body.

avocados, Eggplant and Pears target the health and function of the womb and cervix of the female - they look just like these organs. Today's research shows that when a woman eats one avocado a week, it balances hormones, sheds unwanted birth weight, and prevents cervical cancers. And how profound is this? It takes exactly nine (9) months to grow an avocado from blossom to ripened fruit. There are over 14,000 photolytic chemical constituents of nutrition in each one of these foods. Modern science has only studied and named about 141 of them.

Figs are full of seeds and hang in twos when they grow. Figs increase the mobility of male sperm and increase the numbers of Sperm as well to overcome male sterility.

Sweet Potatoes look like the pancreas and actually balance the glycemic index of diabetics.
 
Oranges, Grapefruits, and other Citrus fruits look just like the mammary glands of the female and actually assist the health of the breasts and the movement of lymph in and out of the breasts.
Onions look like the body's cells. Today's research shows onions help clear waste materials from all of the body cells. They even produce tears which wash the epithelial layers of the eyes. A working companion, Garlic, also helps eliminate waste materials and dangerous free radicals from the body.

Some interesting thoughts

Prayer is not a "spare wheel" that you pull out when in trouble,
but it is a "steering wheel" that directs the right path throughout.

Do you know why a Car's WINDSHIELD is so large & the Rearview Mirror is so small?  
Because our PAST is not as important as our FUTURE.  Look Ahead and Move on.

Friendship is like a BOOK. 
It takes few seconds to burn, 
but it  takes years to write.

All things in life are temporary. 
If going well, enjoy it, they will not last forever.  
If going wrong, don't worry, they can't last long either.

Old Friends are Gold! New Friends are Diamonds! 
If you get a Diamond, don't forget the Gold! 
Because to hold a Diamond, you always need a Base of Gold!

Often when we lose hope and think this is the end, GOD smiles from above and says, "Relax, it's just a bend, not the end!

When GOD solves your problems, you have faith in HIS abilities;
when GOD doesn't solve your problems HE has faith in your abilities.

A blind person asked "Can there be anything worse than losing eye sight?" 
The reply: "Yes, losing your vision!"

When you pray for others, God listens to you and blesses them,  and sometimes, when you are safe and happy, remember that someone has prayed for you.

WORRYING does not take away tomorrows' TROUBLES, 
it takes away todays' PEACE.

Human Beings

Human Beings - are a very interesting species. We complain about many things in life - each of the worrisome matter making us loose our sleep and peace over it. Coming to think of it; it is simple - "If any issue is going to be solved, then why fret/worry about it becoz it is going to get solved with right effort? If any issue cannot be solved, then why worry about it, becoz it is not going to get solved even if you keep worrying about it".

I was reminded of this saying this evening, when I saw this video. Hats off, Nick Vujicic. No Arms, no legs, NO WORRIES!!

Officers & Jawans from the 2nd Rajputana Rifles pray before going into battle, to get back Tololing Top. Behind the jawan in the foreground (with a 5.56mm INSAS rifle) is Captain Vijayant Thapar captainvijyantthapar.com/> . His face is partly hidden and is seen sporting a beard. Lieutenant Thapar laid down his life, in the capture of Tololing Top and was awarded the Vir Chakra posthumously for his valour.

Major Padmapani Acharya, 2nd Rajputana Rifles, leads his men into battle after the successful capture of Tololing Top. The 2 Raj.

It was here, that Major Acharya laid down his life in the highest traditions of the Indian Army on 29 June 1999. He was awarded the Maha Vir Chakra, posthumously .



Making the way through narrow valley








The Leh-Batalik road is as notorious as the Srinagar-Kargil road. At its beginning lie staging areas, at its end fierce fighting and often, death. Jawans patrol the rugged slopes near Batalik. For them, there is little time for rest and little time to think, always poised on the edge of action.


Capt.Vijayant Thapar (Robin)
He Laid down for OUR BETTER TOMORROW
At the age of only 22





His Last Letter to his parents

Moments before the final assault Capt. Vijyant Thapar (Robin) left this letter at the war front base, to be handed over to his family.

Some thought about "thoughts"

"Thoughts" - the seed from which we manifest our "self". It is an interesting concept. Thoughts occur in the "mind". Western Science has been trying to determine what "constitutes" a mind; and hence determine the place from which thoughts emanate and searching for it in the energy fields of the brain. Eastern Science treats thoughts in a more holistic manner.

Thoughts are the expression of "self" - a rough definition of Atma (soul). Thoughts emanates in our mind and result into feelings. Our emotions - anger, love, jealousy, sadness, happiness, etc - are feelings that result from thoughts. These emotions then makes us act in a certain way, which leads to actions. And of course, actions results into reactions from the other side who received the result of an action. Actions can be perceived as good or bad based on the perception of the do-er and receiver. Each feeling and the corresponding action can also be seen as form of energy that we express, that adds onto the existing energy field around us. This is the karma of our actions.

Most of us would experienced this energy and the energy fields in our life in different forms and fashion. When we are in the midst of a pious man, we can feel that the surroundings reflecting a certain kind of positiveness that projects content. When we are in the midst of a crowd that is protesting, we can feel the energy that is disruptive; when we are in a stadium watching an interesting match between the two teams, we can feel the edginess. These are examples of the energy that we experience in our daily life.

It is not the actions that actually creates the energy; action is just a path to this energy. It is the "thoughts" that is manifest itself as the energy, the karma. The thoughts can create and manifest positive energy. Hence, it becomes very important for us to create thoughts that help us achieve our goals. If thoughts have to be positive, then the mind has to be tended too (more about it sometime later).

Give it a try - next time, when you are late in getting ready for a busy day, you feel the anxiety, your young one throws a tantrum to make your more anxious and frustrated leading you to anger - you have a choice of how you deal with it. It is in your thinking. Try it and see how you can change the situation and the energy around you by thinking in a calm and positive manner.

The same principle applies to your work and everything else in life. It is difficult. I have been trying to implement it for the past few weeks. It has been an interesting challenge.

At the same time, it leaves us wondering - what is mind? Is it the thoughts of our self, our Atma or is it the brain?

Have fun :-).
