| The Practices
Like a bath without a plug attempting to fill, ones efforts at growing spiritually are wasted and at worst may be dangerously exhaustive. This applies to meditation through to the martial arts; positive affirmations throught to self-help teachings and every single activity.
The bottom line is to sacrifice sex on earth for the rest of your life, for an eternity of it in heaven � if you make it. Without a relationship obligation you're unencumbered to do essential battle with malevolent souls whose sole purpose is to destroy you � one way or an other, before 'graduating' to the stage wherein you may engage in marital relations: the life after the successful natural death of your body.
At the most orthodox approach, celibacy is required, and equally essential, no manual stimulation � these I observe; you can pick and choose what appeals to you and observe how this impacts on your life, and align yourself more closely as desired. This is also what I believe to be the ultimate in martial arts of which I am currently developing. In my experience here is a compilation of what one does and does not in order to cultivate heaven itself.
Veganism.
- Eating and wearing no animal products including honey (for most vegans), this is exploitation.
Environmentalism.
- Learn to live naturally in harmony with the earth rather than way-lay a complexity we imagine we understand through our destructive endeavours. The food it produces is done with our contribution. If we pollute, it is bitter; we add sugar � an endless spiral away from heaven on earth.
Minimal use of artificial light.
- We learn to appreciate the rising and setting of the sun; to be about, then to retire; longer in summer than winter, and in tune with nature and the planet rather than out of step � spiritual cosmic beings.
Minimum tele and radio.
- In moderation these may have their uses, but entertainment is all around. Usurpassed beauty is next door � far more than the supermodels on the tele and the voices and oration of the radio. Beauty includes the voice of your favourite person, the singing of birds, the play of youngsters, the subtlety of complexion, the scent of a person, the colours of a single individual; richness of experience without the tele and radio, pc, mobile, ipod, dvd, cinema, through being in the neighbourhood, interacting and sharing life, and the whole sensational flux of interrelations contributing locally and spreading like ripples on a lake to leave none untouched. Compared with a living death rejecting the real world and believing the tele is it.
No:
- Sexual relations: celibacy: std's; Exhausting yourself for the chase when they appear; probability of subjection to chaotic conditions; no longer in servitude to the opposite sex, slave to your hope, rather than the Lord. You're outside of a system based on material aspirations and not subject to its ultimate power.
- Manual stimulation: contributing to healthy not unhealthy community vibrations.
- Unnecessary handling of ones genitals � sit down to pee. This is minimalist manuel stimulation � the role specifically for the pleasure of your partners v.
- Sleeping on your front � on sides or back only.
- Unnecessary touching of others. Encourages transference of intimate sensations, so cultivating relations.
- Shaving of body hairs: presents an honest image of oneself and everything it, encouraging as far as possible the reigning of truth.
- Voluntary circumcisions or piercings. Leave the body whole as you were born � every part has its function, even if we are presently unaware. Minimises also infection risk or inadvertent mutilation.
- Smoking: pseudo meditation.
- Drinking: Places one in a state of mind unprepared for emergency eventualities.
- Drugs: As above.
- Gambling: slot machines, lotto etc. Puts your hope in material salvation.
- Bath soap: strips the skin of its natural moisturizing oils that have the opportunity to re-emerge during the day, after a bath.
- Shampoo and conditioner: Wash the hair soley with water, and as above allow your natural routine to provide minimalist conditioning from the particles of the environment. A good rub will spread this evenly and put the head oils into the hair.
- Hair dressing and wigs: Let the hair grow naturally into the shape your body recommeds, thus giving the truth about your reactions and sending you on to your true not false destiny � your ideal partner might love you for just that appearance.
- Hats and headwear: good for rain and sun but vanity otherwise.
- Skin cremes: Rely on natural oil from the skin. The dirt collected between baths is rubbed off and also into the skin by using only the soles of the hands. This will create a fine, washed artificial second skin � environmental protection and a token of your travels, a reminder of your experiences, your history forever with you.
- Eau de toilet: natural body odour; this is your true scent � who you are; what you do; attracting those interested in you and repelling those not � rather than believing you to be someone else.
- Insence, air freshener.
- Jewellery except a watch. Only what is necessary � ideally naked but for the law and weather. Ought else is affectation � subjection to influence and potential idolation.
- Sun-glasses
- Heater. Learn to have regard as do the creatures of the wild for the weather. Appreciate the summer; learn to live with the winter; flourish in summer; spend most of the time wrapped in the duvet in winter in virtual hibernation. No need to burn the environment, but a return to mother nature a our true house � this is cultivated within four walls minimally � and a spiritual alternative world, but affecting a cumulative impact on the enviroment.
- Intriguing but attention consuming activities. Everyone has their own particular strange pampering activity; care is exercised not to continue what amounts to wasting energy, or activities making redundant your favourite persons contribution.
- minimisation of explicative detection and use.
