Greetings from Russell's Remnant:
TNG January 1996 newsletter: Dr. Whitesell quietly said, "That's very interesting. Have you ever read Rule Six (IHS p. 196)? Read it! Learn it! Follow it, if you so aspire. The aspirant to discipleship must be a strict vegetarian. Meat clogs his system. This rule may not be violated. Eat vegetables, grains, fruits and nuts.
Russell Whitesell was a fruitarian or vegetarian most of his life. He knew that the body you go out with is the body you come in with in the next life. He also told of the ancient scripture which stated, "In the Age of Kali Yuga, man will die in his own mucus." We should eat 80% alkaline and only 20% acid foods.
All food if cooked over 120o is dead food. Nothing should be cooked if it can be eaten raw or natural.
Don't drink liquids with meals, either 1/2 hr. before or 2 hr. after.
Salt #1 killer - it takes 3 yrs to rid body of its poisons.
Sugar, refined - Health destroyer #2 killer.
Flour, enriched - #3 killer.
All hydrogenated oils - #4 killer.
Milk/milk products - #5 killer.
TNG December 1995 newsletter: Russell once looked at one of his overweight chelas and said, "Boy, if I ate what you eat, I'd be dead." He also stated "If you want to live, you must eat live food. If you want to die, eat dead food."
Most human misery and suffering come out of the colon.
Obese people have colons that are impacted with as much as 35 pounds of decaying fecal matter.
It does take perseverance to overcome food addiction.
Constipation causes obesity.
Nature teaches us through this example that there is basically only one disease, the one caused by overeating and eating of the wrong foods. It can be cured by but one remedy, namely by withholding from the body those very substances which normally will bring about disease.
In the colon itself lies the basic cause of almost all human ailments.
To have a clean colon is the best health insurance we can have.

Russell Whitesell, who chided D.K. and the Teachers for not giving enough instruction on the human body, stated:
All disease is the result of constipation.
All disease is the result of inhibited soul life.
We dig our grave with our mouths.
Be a vegetarian! A vegetarian diet is the biggest and best life insurance policy you can have.
D.K. stated:
The human race, as a rule, eats four times as much as is required. LOM 345+
Pure Food - vegetarian diet, refrain from too heavy eating, milk, honey, whole wheat bread, all vegetables that contact the sun, oranges (above all oranges), bananas, raisins, nuts, some potatoes, unpolished rice. LOM 334+
No set diet is correct for a group of people. Each person must find this out for himself. EH 334
Morya stated:
Eat food twice a day. AT 277
Eating is the chains of the devil. More people perish from over-eating than from hunger. All superfluous food is harmful. FW2 111
Everything natural is to be attained by natural methods. BRO 27
If humanity would refrain from devouring dead bodies, then evolution could be accelerated. BRO 17
Blood is undesirable in the diet. AUM 135
People know that vegetables or fruit give more vital energy than a cup of blood, yet they prefer being served with bloody meat. Lovers of blood are from darkness. Make your diet simpler and more refined. It is necessary to have some raw vegetables or fruit each day. FW1 261+
Food requirements are not complicated - the chief thing is to avoid blood. FW1 105
Satchidananda stated:
Cholesterol is found only in animal products. Eat any diet that does not deposit toxins into the system.
Most meat eating animals need to be caged for they are fierce and aggressive. They also smell bad.
By staying away from meat you make a day holy. If you stay away from meat every day everyday will be a holy day.
If you kill a man, you are taken to court; if you kill an animal, no court. When you die, you go to a graveyard. When many animals die, their graveyard is in your stomach.
What we eat we become. If we eat junk food, our bodies will have to be junked. If you just grab something, it will probably grab you. People become ill by overeating and eating the wrong food.
If you eat once a day, you are a Yogi; twice a day, you are bhogi; and three times a day, a rogi. A yogi is spiritual, bhoga means enjoyment and rogi means sickness.
Use all 32 of your teeth to chew. Eat only when relaxed, never if upset or angry - that poisons the system.
Chew your food well, until it becomes liquefied in your mouth. You will eat half as much.
A diet of fruit, vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts and milk products will not leave a lot of toxins in our systems.
If a spiritual seeker is interested in food and eating, all of his spiritual practices will be like so many things thrown into a river.
Without control of the tongue you can forget about spirituality; you will not be able to control any of the other senses.
Actually oxygen is more important than food. Deep breathing is like spring housecleaning.
Take at least seventy deep breaths every day.
Adding more water to your diet helps reduce fat deposits.
Drink at least sixty-four ounces of water a day.
It is better to drink too much water rather than not enough.
If it has a mother, don’t eat it.
If is runs from you, don’t eat it.
Your body should not be the graveyard for animals.
Only living foods can make a living body.
Foods that melt fat are raw fruits and vegetables. The secret is you must eat raw food before and after your meal.
Chew your food 30 times.
Nothing will create mucus in your system if it is well digested.
One needs to take food as if one were taking poison.
Take food as if it were medicine.
Note: Dr. Russell Whitesell was given up for dead in his home in California by four doctors and three nurses at age thirteen. His body actually turned black, but his mother refused to accept the diagnosis. He awakened and found a book about natural healing laying on his bed that his mother had left there. He read the book, Mucusless Diet by Arnold Erhet. It saved his life. He ate only carrots and carrot juice for several years and recovered. Russell suggested drastic diets for drastic cases. Some listened - most didn’t. As Russell was often heard to say, "The trouble with ignorance is that it doesn’t know it’s ignorant." Russell stated that the 6th ray should manifest as idealism, but often it turns to fanaticism. He cautioned that he could have very easily become a zealot about diet. He tried to help people in the area of diet but did not want to be seen as a fanatic. He also warned vegetarians about being separative about their diets. He thought it was wrong to insist on a vegetarian diet if you were with others who were not. He often said that vegetarians who prattled on about being one were "pains in the butt."
