Importance of Water

  • Water carries nutrients to our cells.
  • Water aids digestion by forming stomach secretions.

  • Water serves as a lubricant and is the basis of saliva and the fluids surrounding the joints.
  • Water helps prevent and alleviate constipation by moving food through the intestinal tract.
  • Water plays a crucial role in disease prevention, as the deprivation of water colors lead to failure of cell or organ functions which could lead to diseases.
  • Flushes our bodies of wastes, and keeps our kidneys healthy. Our kidneys are fantastic waste removers; they get rid of the waste products from protein metabolism --uric acid, urea, and lactic acid -- but they need lots of water to accomplish this. The kidneys also balance the fluids and electrolytes in our bodies so that our systems run smoothly. If the kidneys don't get the water they need to perform these filtering functions, our health deteriorates rapidly.
  • Many doctors believe that proper hydration can help prevent chronic joint diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, because water reduces inflammation and promotes cartilage health.

  • Drink one to two glasses of water as soon as you get up in the morning.
  • Keep a pitcher of water near your work space so that you are constantly reminded to drink during the day.
  • Avoid drinks with caffeine or alcohol, which have a dehydrating effect.
  • Drink at least one glass of room-temperature water with every meal.

Identification...

Identification is possession, the assertion of ownership.  Ownership denies love.  To own is to be secure; Possession is defense, making oneself invulnerable.  When there is defense, there will be no love.  Love is vulnerable, pliable, and receptive; it is the highest form of sensitivity.  Identification makes for insensitivity.  Identification destroys love. Identification destroys freedom.  Love or sensitivity exists only in freedom. Truth or happiness cannot come without undertaking the journey into the ways of the self.  You are anchored means you cannot travel far.  Identification is a refuge. A refuge needs protection

Becoming does not contain Being

Ambition in any form for spiritual achievement is action postponed.    Desire is ever of the future; the desire to become is inaction in the present.  The now has greater significance than the tomorrow.  In the now is all time and to understand now is to be free of time.  Becoming is the continuation of time and of sorrow.  Becoming does not contain Being.  Being is always in the present and being is the highest form of transformation.  Becoming is merely modified continuity, and there is radical transformation only in the present, in being.
