An Exploration of the Energetic Frequencies Stored Within Our Food at the Start of the Supply Chain
Lucian Books and Wine; Atlanta, Georgia, United States of America.
“You are what you eat” is a saying often used to shame individuals into eating healthier, for if they do not, they will become fat and large-bodied. While being larger than one is supposed to be is not good for the body, the saying is not usually used to gently guide the individual into eating better for health reasons. Rather, it is linked to the ever-changing beauty standards.
I would like to propose a new meaning to the phrase, “you are what you eat”, aligned with the energetic frequencies of food mattering much more than the calories stored within them.
Food absorbs energy at every step of the food supply chain. From farming, to transportation, to cooking, to serving, there is not a moment in time when your food is not absorbing the energetic frequencies of those who are around it.
When the Bible tells you to bless your food, you do so because you understand that food holds energy.
Do you think that every person who came in contact with the meal you are about to eat blessed your food, or do you think they cursed it? The curses need not be spoken out loud, for as we know, God understands our hearts.
Do you think that the farm worker who lives in a crowded, unsanitary shack blessed your tomatoes as he picked them?
Do you think that the farm worker who fears every day being stripped from the life he has come to know as his own solely because he doesn’t hold documentation papers for the fictitious entity that rules the land he now resides in blessed your cilantro before he cut them?
Do you think that the farm worker who has now developed health conditions due to the harsh weather conditions they have been forced to work countless of unpaid hours in blessed your onions before he pulled them?
There is a real, universal spiritual debt that comes from ignoring those who harvest what is supposed to nourish us. We are so disconnected from the very thing we must consume nearly every single day of our lives for our basic survival.
America used to be an energetic haven.
In the land of the Native Americans, before European settlers brought their new ways and ideas, animals were seen as our spiritual relatives. They were not seen as resources merely there for our consumption. They were revered for their wisdom and choices in how they lived their lives. They were not raised and bred in captivity, as though they lacked a soul.
Hunters would pray before and after the killing of an animal, asking the animal’s spirit for permission and forgiveness. They were not haphazardly picked from a large-scale operation slaughterhouse. They were not stunned prior to being killed to save the murderer from the remorse of hearing the animal’s cries.
The fully conscious chicken who had its legs dismembered from its body is not bringing you blessings.
The fully conscious chicken who was forced to walk into a scald tank intended to remove feathers from dead chickens is not bringing you blessings.
The fully conscious cow who had its throat slit is not bringing you blessings.
The fully conscious pig who was kicked, shocked, and dragged because it was too sick to stand from the inhumane conditions it resided in is not bringing you blessings.
The animals who are forced to reside in slaughterhouse pens for prolonged periods of time without water while having direct sunlight from temperatures exceeding 100 degrees Fahrenheit are not bringing you blessings.
You can beg, plead, and cry at the dinner table for God to bless the food you are about to ingest, but not a single thing will take away the energetic frequencies that that dish has already absorbed. Sure, energy can be transmutted, but there are levels to this. The depth of harm done to that food that is sitting on your plate will be quite a task to do away with all the negativity it has ingested on its way to you. We have only discussed the first step of the supply chain, imagine the disdain that has been implanted in your meal from the truckers who rarely get to see their families, from the line cooks who are continually berated by their head chef, from the servers whose guaranteed pay is not even a third of minimum wage.
The vast majority of those who are handling your food are being underpaid, mistreated, and live a life rooted in suffering.
When you take a life, either directly or indirectly, you have a spiritual duty to honor that life. However, for those who wake up every day feeling like their life is not being honored by the forces that pull them out of bed at times that don’t align with their circadian rhythm and they must go on to complete a heavily traumatic job with no acknowledgement for just how traumatic taking a life several times a day can be, honoring another is not exactly at the top of mind.
When the Bible spoke of blessing your food, the author was not prepared for the modern-day realities of the life of your food beginning with being handled by those who are scared they will die because of their work, yet they must work or they will die. The author didn’t realize that consumers of their food would be totally and completely shielded from the energetic realities of what they are actually consuming.
Meat appearing as a sterile and shrink-wrapped product looks real appealing, doesn’t it?
Vegetables being neatly bundled with a light time-automated sprinkling of water look like they were delivered there with care, don’t they?
You are not bad for eating the food that is available to you. You weren’t there in the 1400s when the Columbian Exchange began. You weren’t there to tell Christopher Columbus to stop right in his tracks before he continued the process of damning an entire world to suffering.
The really great thing about being a human is that you are here right now. You can do something, right now. You can speak to someone, right now. You can help someone, right now.
The steps of change don’t involve you mobilizing your fight-or-flight response to riot for workers and animal rights for a week, then going back to your daily screen-ridden, stressed-out life when you are given a light pacifier to shut you up. The problem is still there because the root of the problem was never looked at.
Look at it this way:
You have rhodium, and you have gold.
Both are precious metals.
Gold is widely accepted. Everyone knows it to be the most “precious” within the confines of their minds.
Rhodium is hardly known. It is the rarest and most expensive precious metal you will come across.
If you go up to a stranger on the street and offer them a troy ounce of gold and a troy ounce of rhodium, which one do you think they will take?
They will take what they know to be the best because it is what the world has told them is the best.
Little do they know, they have just cost themselves a very expensive life lesson.
They may realize when they go home and look up the value of that unknown metal that was just presented to them. However, the time has passed. It is too late.
If they are anything like the average American, they will sulk and say something along the lines of, “Well, gold is still pretty good. It’s better than what I already had.”
They will move on with their lives. They will never think of the greatness of rhodium again.
Then one day, they will walk down the street and happen to pass by a chunk of a troy ounce of rhodium.
However, since they have blocked rhodium out of their mind and decided to go back to living their life of gold;
They forgot that rhodium even existed.
When something as great as rhodium is presented to you freely with no strings attached, that is not something that you give up very easily. You don’t just go back to living your everyday life. You will do what you must do to get that rhodium back. You will go to spiritual war over that troy ounce of rhodium.
That is the idea that I am trying to present to you with Everest and the Frogz. There is a life that is equivalent to rhodium. It is not something you must act on with full throttle, foot not coming up off the gas. It is a calm, slow birthing within you.
You see, you read, you analyze.
You think, you hem, you haw.
You think, you recognize, you realize.
You change, you adjust, you calibrate.
