The Christ of India - Essene roots of Christianity

The Christ of India
Essene roots of Christianity

Their contact and interchange with Indian religion–Brahminical practices in particular–were manifested in several ways among the Essenes:

1. They practiced strict non-violence.

2. They were absolute vegetarians and would not touch alcohol in any form. Nor would they eat any food cooked by a non-Essene. (Edersheim says: "Its adherents would have perished of hunger rather than join in the meals of the outside world.")

3. They refused to wear anything of animal origin, such as leather or wool, usually making their clothes of linen.

4. They rejected animal sacrifice, insisting that the Torah had not originally ordered animal sacrifice, but that its text had been corrupted–in regard to that and many other practices as well. Their assertion was certainly corroborated by passages in the scriptures such as: "Will I eat the flesh of bulls, or drink the blood of goats?" (Psalms 50:13). "To what purpose [is] the multitude of your sacrifices unto me? saith the Lord:…I delight not in the blood of bullocks, or of lambs, or of he goats" (Isaiah 1:11). "For I spake not unto your fathers, nor commanded them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices" (Jeremiah 7:22). The quotation from Isaiah is particularly relevant since he was himself the Master of the Essenes.

The disciples of Saint Thomas

By their own preference the disciples of Saint Thomas were usually referred to in India as "Ishannis." This means "of Isha," just as Lutheran means "of Luther." Although Jesus' Aramaic name was Yeshua, in India he was known as Isha. Perhaps Ishanni could awkwardly, but accurately, be translated "Jesusites" or "Isha-ites." Some Indian scholars such as Swami Abhedananda make the conjecture that either Ishanni is actually a derivation of Essene (Essenees), or that the Essenes themselves were called Ishannis, "Isha" in their case being a reference to God "the Lord." This would certainly reveal their Indian spiritual roots.

Some Distinctive Traits of the Ishanni Sampradaya

A great number of the Ishanni Sampradaya's characteristics have already been discussed, but a few more should be mentioned to help us better understand the Ishanni Sampradaya.

1. Ishannis were vegetarians, abstaining absolutely from meat, fish, and eggs–as well as from alcohol–in any form or quantity. (In 1604, many Ishannis of Cranganore fled into the hills to escape being forced by the Western missionaries to eat fish.)

3. Ishannis held that the twin laws of karma and rebirth were the fundamental truths about human existence, and that without them no religious or personal philosophy can be either true or viable.

4. Ishannis believed that there are three eternal things: God (Parameshwara), the individual souls (jivas), and primordial matter (pradhana or mulaprakriti). These three are the real Father, Son(s), and Holy Spirit (Mahashakti)–or: Pita, Putra, and Prakriti. From the standpoint of God these three are one in an incomprehensible manner. From the standpoint of the individual soul these three are distinct from one another.

Unknown Life of Jesus Christ

The Four Soul Killers

For this reason those who seek higher consciousness should scrupulously avoid: 1) all animal flesh, including fish and eggs; 2) tobacco in any form; 3) alcohol in any form; and 4) mind-altering drugs, including the legal ones. The use of these substances is a form of mental and spiritual suicide–and often physical suicide, too, for the number of suicides committed by those who are pumped full of "tranquillizers" and "anti-depressants" is simply incredible.

Meat, Fish, and Eggs

First let us look at meat. The effect of meat on the mental and psychic states of those who eat it is detrimental to the attempt at attaining higher consciousness. It is even destructive of normal, balanced mental states for, as stated above, our minds are fields of energy which absorb the subtle energies of whatever we eat and are affected thereby. To eat meat is to absorb the mental state of the animal.

The Cave Where Jesus Stayed
A growing mass of evidence indicates that Jesus spent much of his "Lost Years" in India.

This is the cave north of Rishikesh in which Jesus lived for some time. In the last century both Swami Rama Tirtha and Swami (Papa) Ramdas lived there (at separate times), and had visions of Jesus meditating there, though they had no prior knowledge of his having lived there.

榴槤 Durian 水果簡介

榴槤 英文:Durian - 水果


榴槤的由來
原產於婆羅州群島,為熱帶水果,東南亞普遍都有種植,其中以泰國的產量最大,品質優良。


榴槤有著水果之王的稱號,果實從生長至成熟需3-4個月,成熟後的榴槤果肉金黃,風味撲鼻;由於榴槤的特殊味道是因為果實成熟時產生硫化物的關係,所以越熟過頭的果實味道越重,許多人無法接受這樣的味道。榴槤的中文名稱是來自於馬來語Durian音譯而來,Duri為刺,an為語尾,意思指的就是「帶刺的東西」。


http://easss.com/food/fruit


榴槤營養成份相當高,含鈣、蛋白質、多種維生素、礦物等等,但它的熱量與鉀含量相當高。就中醫來看,榴槤屬熱性水果。榴槤在東南亞地區,被禁止攜帶至公共場所,如地鐵、商場等地。


榴槤品種簡介


台灣進口榴槤有一半是來自泰國,1997年更高達3.6萬頓;在泰國當地人較喜愛青尼(Chanee),原因在於它有非常濃厚的榴槤香,但果肉率不及金枕頭,故國人大都以消費金枕頭MonThong 為主。另還有甲倫(干倫、KradumThong)、KanYao等品種。


泰國寶石球榴槤


金枕頭
英名:MonThong
簡介:橢圓形,卵形,末端突出,中大型果,果皮銹綠色,厚約1.25cm,果肉淡黃色,肉質紮實,汁多微甜,平均果重約2-4.5公斤,盛產期約120-135天。Mon泰語意思就是「枕頭」,Thong就是指「黃金」,故通稱【金枕頭】。




青尼
英名:Chanee
簡介:橢圓形,卵形,中型果,果皮綠色,厚約1.1cm,果肉乳黃色,過熟會呈現網狀,味甜但過熟易有苦味,平均果重約2-4.5公斤,盛產期約90-100天。果實黏附在分支的末端,看起來就像長臂猿垂懸在樹上,故取名為Chanee,國內名為【青尼】。


甲倫(干倫)
英名:Kar-Dum-Thong
簡介:扁圓,卵形,小中型果,平均果重約1.5-3公斤,果皮綠色,厚約1.0cm,果肉黃色,肉質較硬,種子中大,盛產期約90-100天。


Kanyao
英名:Kanyao
簡介:Kanyao 在泰國是指果梗長之意,Kanyao 是其他榴槤品種中果梗最長的品種。圓形、扁圓、卵形,中大型果,平均果重約2-3.5公斤,果皮綠色,果肉淡黃色,味甜,種子大。


加工榴槤
泰國當地Sunshine公司,
http://www.sunshine.co.th


擁有高科技極速冷凍技術和真空急凍乾燥設備,利用這些技術與設備,將新然水果極速冷凍乾燥後,只剩約3%的水份,重量縮減了90%以上,保留下水果本身的鮮味、色澤,而營養成份也不流失,再加以真空包裝,無任何添加物(防腐劑、糖、添加劑),Sunshine 公司也通過HACCP、GMP、 ISO 9001等多項認證,品質有保證。


榴槤乾:將金枕頭榴槤去皮、去籽後,進行極速冷凍乾燥,不添加任何防腐劑、糖、添加劑、色素,並以真空包裝。


在冷凍乾燥後,榴槤乾也保留了榴槤原有的味道、色澤;完成冷凍乾燥後的榴槤乾,100公克相當於1公斤的榴槤果肉(不含籽),100公克裡的營養成份相當於整顆榴槤(約2公斤不含籽)。


榴槤肉:將金枕頭榴槤去皮、去籽,將果肉採用極摙冷凍後,無任何添加物(防腐劑、糖、添加劑、色素),以真空包裝,100%榴槤果肉所生成。

欺騙的種子 作者專訪 傑佛瑞‧史密斯:沒有安全的基改作物

《欺騙的種子》作者專訪 傑佛瑞‧史密斯:沒有安全的基改作物
本報2012年4月9日台北訊,特約記者廖靜蕙報導
環境資訊中心
Book Info

台灣民眾生活周遭的豆類、玉米製品,超過一半是基改作物。《欺騙的種子》一書揭露跨國生物科技公司為了獨佔種子市場,在基因改造技術十分不穩定情況下,硬是透過官僚體系做出有利企業卻不見得符合民眾福祉決定的作者傑佛瑞‧史密斯(Jeffrey M. Smith)接受專訪時指出,目前沒有安全的基改食品,民眾應立即避吃基改食品。

基因改造技術不穩定


史密斯8日接受記者專訪時表示,目前的科技技術充滿不確定性,無法生產安全的GMO(Genetically modified organism,基因改造有機體),有太多案例顯示,即使過程中放入好的基因,卻得出有害的結果,讓人不得不謹慎面對這個事實。


他不反對在實驗室研究基因改造,或許假以時日會成功,但把不成熟的產品餵食給大眾,基因釋放到大自然,是十分危險而不負責任,更將造成大自然不可逆的情境。


他建議,立即避吃GMO食物、了解GMO食品所造成的危險,以及教育政府、農民或一般人,這個簡單的公式,在歐洲以及美國,都曾成功的影響食品供應體系。


要求基改食品標示


史密斯成立了「責任科技機構」(The Institute For Responsible Technology)教育數百萬人懂得如何避開GMO食物,有越來越多的美國民眾要求基改食品標示。


美國有20多個州要求立法強制基改食品標示,上個月他在康乃狄克州以及上周在佛蒙特州州議員的記者會推動這個法案,這幾天他得到很多迴響,多位議員提案要求立法;3月27日上百萬的簽名、55位參議員寫信給聯邦政府,要求GMO食品標示要求標示;加州這個月有850,000個簽名,希望11月將此案付諸公投決定。


在美國有高達90%以上的民眾都支持基改食品標示,有53-58%民眾表示,在基改食品標示後,會選擇非基改作物,但傑佛瑞‧史密斯認為只要有5%的民眾積極表達拒買GMO食品,就可以讓大廠商知道在這件事情上沒有利益,而放棄供應GMO食品。


台灣基改食品標示陷阱多


史密斯說他正在尋找解決問題的一個施力點,能如《欺騙的種子》第一章所述,當英國科學院解除了阿帕‧普茲泰的封口令,讓他道出基因改造作物之不確定性後,歐洲在短短十周就把GMO趕出去。


而台灣仍有大部分民眾不曉得基改食品就在身邊。台灣大豆以及玉米包裝製品要求含有5%以上基改作物,必須標示,醬油、大豆沙拉油則不需要;未標示為非基改者,仍有極高比例含有基改作物,因此,這兩種作物製品,只有選擇有機或標示為非基改的包裝食品;而散裝製品沒有標示,只能要求廠商自願性標示。


反基改阻力大


除了標示,消費者也必須知道基改食品是怎麼回事,依據傑佛瑞‧史密斯的經驗,民眾知道之後,往往都會想知道更多,甚至改變態度。責任科技機構即曾透過讓美國民眾了解癌症風險和喝了注射牛隻生長激素的牛奶之間的關聯,因為這些積極的行動,讓民眾覺醒,也促成沃爾瑪、星巴克等大型連鎖企業不再使用注射牛隻成長激素的牛奶。而這只是對抗GMO食品帝國的一個成功案例。


傑佛瑞‧史密斯指出,1999年生物科技公司連續5年,每年花了5000萬美元,要讓美國民眾認為基改是好的,可以餵飽全世界,也控制主流媒體為其發聲。而關注這個議題的人則以各種藉口將其邊緣化,因此他們必須努力對抗生物科技公司加諸於其上的偏見。


相對於這股龐大的力量,GMO相關的教育經費少,相關的科學研究也會遭到攻擊或被抽走,這使得科學家只能保持沉默或處於缺乏研究經費的狀態。


傑佛瑞‧史密斯從台灣瘦肉精事件看到台灣人民的覺醒,民眾察覺到美國食品藥物管理局檢驗是有問題、無法信任時,將有助於解決美國食品制度結構性問題。


台灣應趁早移除基改食品


傑佛瑞‧史密斯認為台灣目前只有兩種基改作物,基改大豆佔80%以上,基改玉米則約在50-60%之間,這兩種都用於食品以及動物飼料,他建議可以先要求從食品中移除基改作物。至於吃基改飼料長大的牛或豬會不會透過食物鏈造成影響,他表示,美國FDA有一份尚未揭露的報告指出,人吃了或喝了以基改作物飼養的牛生產的肉或奶,有特定的健康風險,但這項結果尚未進一步評估。


據責任科技機構訪談過的一些家禽類的專家以及農夫指出,當飼料從基改作物改為非基改作物時,動物的整體健康就大幅度提升,不但生育率提高、死亡率下降,生病的比例也降低。


目前他正在製作一部影片,片中許多醫師態度堅決的告訴病人不要再吃GMO,甚至將此建議列入處方的一部分;這些醫師表示,往往停吃GMO食品後,健康就明顯改善。他們也指出,GMO食品無論對於實驗室裡的小白鼠、集約農場的豬、牛,以及人類造成的問題是一樣的。


而機構也將以保護孩子最有力的母親為目標,教導他們如何讓孩子避開GMO食品。


不同層面的論述,透過不同網絡,例如醫療、環境以及佛教團體分享,當人民了解基改食品的問題有所行動時,供應商不再供應這些食物,並將影響政策決定。


《欺騙的種子》將科學研究用故事說出來

在《欺騙的種子》第7章所述,幾位勇於揭露基改作物真相的媒體記者、作家,都慘遭革職或排擠的面運,傑佛瑞‧史密斯在寫作本書時,十分保密,成書之後,雖曾有出版社洽談,他也拒絕。在他之前就曾發生案例,出版社到最後迫於來自孟山都的壓力而無法出版。等到此書完成、出版時,孟山都已無法阻撓。這本書在整體書市雖屬小眾,卻是討論GMO書籍中算得上賣得好。


傑佛瑞‧史密斯注意到孟山都對本書採取慣用的伎倆,當作沒這回事、不做任何回應,若有人問起,他們則表示沒有讀過或說「我們相信史密斯先生的說法無法改變FDA的決定」。


本書出版於2003年,台灣出版社臉譜是透過美國友人引線,得以出版。傑佛瑞‧史密斯說自己在16年前讀到一份談論基因改造的科學論文,開始關心基因改造對人體的影響。這篇論文提到生物科技的不確定性有多高,一旦釋出,將造成基因庫污染不可逆、無法恢復的困境。


他深知科學論文艱澀難很難讓一般讀者咀嚼吸收,他也承認GMO很難懂,使得一般民眾消極以對,這也讓企業趁機而入,影響科學家以及政府做成符合企業利益的決定。因此,他期待透過大量論文的收集閱讀以及訪談科學家,將這些難懂的科學論文以通俗有趣的故事型態書寫,讓一般民眾得以了解。他關注的是資訊的揭露,唯有讓民眾完全理解才有辦法做出最好的選擇,整體社會也才能做出對的選擇。
