The Divine Responsibility of Being
Refining Food into Consciousness for Complete Design
In this profound statement, Roy Littlesun emphasizes the miraculous nature of the body creating the spirit. He highlights the significance of completing the cycle of nourishment by refining food into consciousness, thereby becoming a major channel for the power of the spirit. Tawa Roy stresses the divine responsibility of humans to respond and refine the spiritual essence within them through the selection, preparation, and consumption of food.
Roy Littlesun begins by discussing the selection of food for the entire day. He advocates for whole grains to constitute at least 50% of the diet, emphasizing their role in carrying the memory and essence of the seed. Secondary grains such as beans should make up no more than 20%, and a variety of vegetables should also be included. Fruits, nuts, and the right condiments are considered secondary foods as well.
Caution is advised against overwhelming the body and mind with overly complex flavors that can confuse organ functions and emotions. Tawa Roy reminds us that too many sharp tastes can lead to confusion in both the body and the mind.
Roy Littlesun reiterates the importance of whole grains as the main food, as they are balanced and universal, not limited to any specific region. He highlights that whole grains played a crucial role in the development of complex human cells and are integral to our design as humans.
Tawa Roy warns that without consuming food that holds the complete memory of life, humans may decline in evolution and experience the prevalence of diseases like cancer and diabetes. We implore listeners to embrace their responsibility as humans to respond to the intricate design of the universe and nourish themselves accordingly.
