Eating - think about your food and the four elements
What do you think about when you are eating? Money problems, your broken heart, the nasty remark someone just made. Try to forget all that for a moment and think about your food and about the body that receives this food. What is your body? A coming together of elements that were previously to be found in water, air, earth and fire. They once made up the matter of other bodies, which have since decomposed. When we eat fruit or vegetables, saying, ‘This is a pear or a watermelon, that is lettuce or a cucumber’, we are quite right, but before these elements existed in the shape and colour that we see before our eyes, they appeared in many other animate or inanimate shapes, and in a multitude of other colours! From the beginning of the world, these same elements have constituted minerals, vegetables, animals and human beings. And when these forms disintegrate over time or by accident, they return to nature’s great workshops to be recycled. But the elements themselves remain forever new, pure and untarnished. It does not matter that all living forms wear out, go mouldy, rot and turn to dust. Nature takes them back into her workshops and then returns them in the form of fresh food for all living beings, or uses them to build new bodies.
