WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE 5TH COMMANDMENT? -- PART TWO

It is so important for people to realise and understand that all creation, all life and objects in this material world are, of their basic essence, simply energy. Energy is the bottom line. We all vibrate energy.




The Effects of Energy

Consider this... When an animal or human is faced with being killed or slaughtered, with what kind of energy, caused from the fear and terror, do you think these individuals vibrate?? It is this energy of fear and panic that is passed on to the consumer whilst eating the flesh of ones fellow creatures -- be they birds, fish or 4-legged animals.

Not too many people would disagree if I were to point out the fact that the worst and most negative condition our Human Race is suffering from today is FEAR and ANXIETY. What people don´t realise is, we are bringing it upon ourselves. It is in the food we eat which ultimately affects the way we think and finally influences the way we feel and behave. And although this information may sound ridiculous to some people, I would suggest, before casting it aside to give it careful consideration, as it is a Universal Truth.

Special Circumstances

Of course there will always be circumstances and places of living where it may necessitate the eating of meat. Not all countries are climatically suited for the growing of fruit, vegetables and grain. At the same time it can occur that certain individuals have been medically advised to continue eating meat as their bodies are not receptive or are resisting taking in the necessary alternative forms of protein. So be it. Either/or... it all boils down to ones attitude and gratitude for the sacrifice the animal has made for the benefit of that individual´s well-being.

The Necessary Change

A great Master has explained it so well for us... "If the energies of the physical body of the terrestrial human are not changed from the animal status to the state of the true Human (Higher Universal--man), and if the same being does not change his animal consciousness to "cosmic consciousness" where all vibrates with Universal Love, he can never become a perfect subject in the Higher Universal Kingdom. He must then still belong to the zone of the killing principle in the animal kingdom and there remain, still subject to its darker form of existence".

A Divine Message

To remind each of us about the importance of this 5th Commandment, a divine message to Mankind explains as follows :

"Blessed are they that turn away from the killing principle and have begun to make love a vital necessity, for they are on their way towards a glorified existence. Through them the Kingdom of God will arise on the Earth".
