My response to Mike Part 2
Now to be sporting and perhaps take a chance of sending you running, what exactly did you mean by ??what you fear most ??? That seems like a loaded phrase. I know it was based on a misunderstanding of what I said, but still points to the fact that you think I fear something regarding breatharianism. If you are saying that I fear those people that have and do cause harm through manipulating weak minds ?? well ?? then ?? I ??d have to agree with you there again. That is what I fear most. I fear unchecked belief and all the harm it causes. I fear that more than anything else. I do fear the collective when it gets some belief system going that causes pain, suffering and death to groups of people.
The way I first interpret what you think I am afraid of however, is that you beilieve that I fear a world of people running around living on nothing but air or trying to evolve to that point in ways that will hurt no one! But if you think that you are wrong. The very reason I get upset with people telling other people to slowly go off food until either they are breatharians or they die is just because I do believe that breatharianism is a possibility and would be utopian. I ??m in love with the idea. Why do you think that I have been following it so many years (I ??ve been searching for at least 25 years for someone who truly has done it!). Like I said before, I would jump on the opportunity to meet a REAL breatharian. Similiarly, I believe that we live in a fundamentally spiritual, thought created universe. Those are beliefs that I have that have been verified in my life over and over again. When something that is so close to my heart is used so badly and turned to hurt others it gets me upset and makes me want to jump up and defend it. I believe that breathariansm is a possibility. People that go around telling other people to stop eating no matter how badly they feel denegrades the whole idea. The best way to make sure that the idea gets positive attention is to make sure that it is treated logically. Not everyone that believes it is a possibility is crazy or illogical or believes anything any one says or thinks that people should just stop eating at any cost. I have had a strong intuition that it is possible since I was a child. So, what I DON ??T want is more people dying or suffering needlessly and what I DO want is for someone eventually to show up and sit in a room for three months so that I can go meet them. I have no fear at all of breatharianism as our next evolutionary step. The idea appeals to me - to both my Spirit and my Ego. If more and more people hold it as a possibility in their minds, all the better. That ??s why it ??s so important to me to write so much on this subject here. I want to prevent anything more happening to denegrate the idea. I would like to prevent anyone else from getting hurt if they read this. This interview and these messages have been sitting here a long time. They will probably be here longer and might come up if someone searches the word ??breatharian ??. If some na ve person was planning on starting to starve themselves because some lady on the internet said anyone can be a breatharian and I talked them out of it here, well then I would consider that a success for the idea in general as well as for that individual and worth my effort.
Mike, one more time, do not take anything I say personally and I have taken nothing that you say personally. We don ??t know one another. I am just writing my opinions on a subject that I feel strongly about trying to do my little part. If I have been unclear or my style incomprehensible or what I have to say is not to your liking, skip over me and talk to other raw foodists here on any subject you like. Most people here are much less intense and are more nice, sweet and cordial than I am. This site is such a resource to anyone interested in raw foods, that it would be shame if a conversation on the unrelated topic of breatharianism turned you away from the support of such a generally wonderful group of people.
