The Doctrine of the Human Body part 2

The Bible talks about seventies, who go around in pairs, like travelling missionaries or ministers. There are also 70s in the body that travel around in pairs. These are the joints of the body, fingers, toes, shoulders, elbows, knees etc as well as the 32 links in the spine which support us as we walk around.

The human body is a collection of tubes, a marvellous self healing mechanism of wonders. Organs consist of tubes, some of them spherical, bone marrow is tubes,the alimentary canal is one really long tube. Only a limited number of things can happen to these tubes. They can be burned, cut, blocked, or weakened and balloon out (called an aneurysm).

Tubes need to flow, or vent themselves out on a regular basis to prevent disease.
I was told by a family friend recently that it doesn't matter what you put into your stomach it will just keep going and going and going (like some sort of superduper waste disposal unit?) The same person also told me that fasting is bad for me as my stomach needs to always have something in it or i will get an ulcer.

No machine can operate 24/7 for 70 years+ on a load of garbage without having some sort of breakdown at some point!!!! Probably not even 20 years. Servicing and repairs need to take place at some point. And given the amount of toxins, pollution, chemicals and hormones loaded into food today, the more often the servicing takes place the better.

Colouring part 2

The 7 systems of the body are linked to ROYGBIV, the 7 colours of the rainbow. Each of these systems is linked to certain positive and negative emotions and can be assisted by eating raw whole foods in the same or opposite colour (eg red:green, orange:blue) Raw whole foods are alive, enzymatically and vibrationally. They pulse with electricity and vitality, the life force that keeps us alive. Dead foods will drag you down, sooner or later, live foods will bring you to life.

Red is the colour of fire and blood, associated with energy, power, strength, danger and love. Related to the edocrine and reproductive systems of the body, it contains the emotional molecules of trust, confidence, anger, incompetence and vitality. Foods include red apples, beetroot, cherries, watermelon, tomatoes and red capsicum.

Orange is the colour of joy, curiousity and warmth. Related to the musculoskeletal system with emotions of curiousity, joy, happiness, fear, doubt and worry. Foods include oranges, of course, carrots, pumpkin, peaches and mangoes.

Yellow is the colour of sunshine, happiness, intellect and youthful energy. Related to the lymphatic/immune system with emotions of wonder, will, anxiety, impatience, nervousness, adoration and intentionality. Foods include yellow apples, lemons, golden kiwi and pineapples.

Green is the colour of nature, growth, harmony, healing and fertility. It belongs to the digestive, eliminative system. Emotions include personal pride, self esteem, acceptance, guilt, self control, grief and arrogance. Foods include anything with chlorophyll, kiwifruit, limes, asparagus, cabbage and zucchini.

Blue is the colour of the sky and sea, a cooling colour equated with stability, loyalty, wisdom and tranquility. Blue foods include blueberries, plums and dark raisins.

Indigo is the colour of communication, linked to the circulatory system. Emotions include elation, graciousness, sadness, rejection, loneliness. Foods include blackberries, currants and grapes.

Purple combines the energy of red and the stability of blue - ambition and nobility, the colour of imagination. Emotions include serenity, contentment, gregariousness, relatedness, depression and dread. Foods include purple figs, elderberries, red cabbage, eggplant and red onions.

Home

I had a week off work recently. I was planning to go visit Fiji, but with multiple earthquake/tsunami warnings in the pacific over the past month, I changed my mind. I ended up back in my home town for a week. It was the best thing I could have done.

As i arrived at my one year anniversary of my current job, I reflected on how I actually feel about my job. In some ways I like it, and it gets me out of my normal comfort zone, meeting people, getting to travel cheaply being my favourite perk. But auckland still doesn't feel like home.

What makes a place home? Is it the place you lay your head on a daily basis, is it where you know people. For me its a sense of belonging, and a place where family are. The funny thing is, my hometown doesn't seem like the place where I need to be. Its like im in a strange sort of limbo, with my hometown not being the place where i need to be, and my current town not being the place I want to be.

Its my own fault really. I haven't given auckland a chance. A year here and I still hardly know anybody. Most of my spare time I'm either back visiting my family or catching up on sleep from crazy shift hours. If i knew people here, it would make living here alot more pleasant, but socializing requires alot of time and energy. I would have to make it much more of a priority. The iridologist was right, I think too much.

The Doctrine of the Human Body part 1

There are certain numbers which stand out a lot in the scriptures, 3, 7 and 12 for example being associated with divinity, natural order, tribes and leadership. But many of these can also be associated with our body, in itself a divinely created instrument.

Certain ancient civilisations linked these up, in the creation of sacred meals eg pulse. Those foods growing in the heavens were for the uppermost part of our body eg citrus fruit, avocados, apples, nuts; those foods growing on the surface of the earth for the centre of our body eg tomatoes, grains, grapes, legumes, broccoli, and foods growing under the earth for the lower part of our body eg onions, carrots, potatoes, ginseng.

Celestial Realm: the Sun - the Throat to the Crown of the Head
Upper Rooms: The heavens
1st heaven = Chin to nose, the tongue being the sword of truth, the larynx being the trumpet of God
2nd heaven = Nose to brow, the 2 councillors (eyes) 2nd sight
3rd heaven = Brow to crown of the head, the President, the 3rd or minds eye
7 Holes of the Head (count them!) 7 Presidents/Elders (El meaning deity, der meaning door) the Holy of Holies
12 Cranial bones = 12 apostles, tribes, sons of Israel, or months of the year

Terrestrial Realm: the Moon - the Throad to the Navel
Main Floor: The constitution
Bishop = The Heart (Pulse of the members of the body)
Bishops storehouse = stomach (Receiver of tithes and offerings)
Giver of gifts = Bowel (bow: promise and el: deity)
Deacons = 2 quorums of 12 = 24 ribs, Protectors of physical needs

Telestial: the stars - Feet to Navel
Basement : Creation
Womb of creation/resurrection
Straight and narrow way
Altar of Incense

The human body is sacred and precious. It is a gift to use while we are here, travelling through space and time, to perform a work for cosmic purposes of intelligence, light and joy forever, worlds without end.

Colouring


Blue is a depressing colour. Calming, serene, the colour of the sky and the sea, peaceful, yet cold. Pink is a loving, affectionate colour. I like it alot better, although I'm not sure that it suits my temperament. I'm not really a sweetheart. Although I prefer purple in general. I did a colour test when I was younger, it was very simple, "If you were a colour, what colour would you be?"

I always liked purple and royal blue the best. Royal blue is a colour for creative souls, with navy blue a preferred one for businessmen and power trippers, and light blue for gentle hippie types. Black for loners and rebels, white for wall flowers who want to blend in with the world, green for healers, yellow for social butterflies (to go with having a sunny temperament, I imagine).

Red for people who want to stand out in a crowd. Orange for calm, earthy types. Purple is apparently a colour chosen by sensitive yet spiritual souls. There's a whole idealogy behind colours and their meanings and ways in which to use them (eg painting prison walls pink to calm down the inmates).

My sister and I went to a natural health expo on Saturday, she had already googled alot of the products that were on display. We discussed the pros and con's of getting aura photos taken, listening to the spiritual teachers she thought might be an antichrist, fertility treatments, colonics, tarot cards and multiple types of therapy. I got a chiropractic assessment for free, and he showed me that my spine is tilted to the left and my left leg was carrying 7kgs more than my right. Hence why the muscles in my left leg are as rigid as a clamp. But i'm getting off topic.

Part of the expo included seminars. One was called the 7 laws of the universe. I only remember the first one, which was balance. But he talked about something else i found interesting, which was light and colour therapy, using a Bioptron light. Each of the 7 systems in the body is linked to a colour of the rainbow, and in order to fix a part of that system a specific colour can be used. You can also use natural foods in those colours. For example, orange is for the digestive system, yellow for nerves, and red for vitality and reproduction.

I'm going to study more about these systems, I think they're fascinating.

Conference talks

I didn't get to see General conference at the time it was shown, but i watched a couple of the talks in hindsight, and one story jumped out at me.

I can't even remember who's talk it was but it hit me. He said every day the father who was a priest or something similar, would ask the children at the dinner table, "What did you do for someone today?"

Their reporting initially took the form of trying to outdo each other in competitive childlike fashion, but as they grew older, the desire to serve others really did grow in each of them.

I thought of that yesterday at work. A person can be motivated by duty or outward pressures, eg I have to do this because my boss is watching me, or an inward motivation or desire, eg I want to do this. Going the extra mile is not something i usually think of doing, but the talk must have got to me, because I found myself making more effort to do what I could for my passengers.

It was only a small thing, but it felt like a glimmer of light into a dark space. I don't know why I've been so depressed for the past few weeks but it hasn't been a good time at all. Maybe if i look out more for others and forget myself in the service of others, my heart will be lighter and the black shadows in my mind will recede.
