How To Lose Weight Without Pills, Diet or Exercise

Does the heading seem too good to be true? Was your initial reaction one of suspicion and caution? If you answered yes to one or both of these questions, you are not alone. We have all been conditioned to believe that there are no miracle cures to our weight problems. The experts tell us repeatedly that the key to losing weight is to eat healthy and exercise a certain amount of time a day. But for so many this does not work, and we are left to ask, “Why can’t I lose weight”, or “why can’t I lose those last few pounds?”

The irony is that the answers are all within, literally. Not to sound like a conspiracy theorist, or to beat down on traditional medicine, but there are people in high places that do not want you to learn the truth about health, especially weight loss. The health industry is a multi-billion and possibly even trillion dollar industry, with the weight loss industry making up a significant portion of that. As the collective are starting to learn, there is nothing outside us that we need to make us healthy. This is not good for the powers that be, as that means they lose their money and subsequent power over us.

Again, there is no need to blame here, they are just doing what they think is right. Even so, we do not need to buy into this false perception of health any longer. Any type of medication is an outer counterfeit of innate healing abilities we already possess. We have been brought up to believe that material things outside us are what heal us, fulfil us, make us happy etc., but this couldn’t be further from the truth. The truth is, there is nothing outside us that we need that we don’t already have within.

All things in life are merely feedback of us; who we are at any one time. Health or lack thereof is feedback, in the same way that an argument is in a relationship, or getting advice from a boss or co-worker is in our job or career. Illness, injury or dis-ease is feedback from our bodies letting us know that something is out of balance within us, in our thoughts and/or emotions. The physical, mental and emotional are all interconnected; they are constantly in alignment with each other. The mental and emotional are causal levels, whereas the physical is only the level of effect.

What this means for us is, nothing physical can make us fat or overweight. In other words, eating too much food, not getting enough exercise etc., cannot make us put on weight. If these things do happen, they are the physical effect of underlying thoughts and emotions within us. These thoughts and emotions, at the level of cause, need to be expressed physically to keep in alignment, as they are all connected. This is why some people can eat ridiculous amounts of food, not do any exercise, and never put on any weight. We all know people like this.

Admittedly, this is a big shift in thinking and perspective compared to what is commonly understood about how health works. Many will argue that there are endless cases of people losing weight by exercising and eating healthy, nutritious diets. This is indeed the case, but unless it is accompanied by inner changes, the weight will inevitably return or the body will manifest another symptom as the feedback in its place. This is the biggest shift of all; to understand that nothing physical can cause or influence anything physical.

The only authentic way to change things on the physical level of effect is to change things in the mental and emotional levels of cause. An effect cannot create another effect. An effect cannot cure another effect. Only cause can create effect. Only cause can cure effect. Thus, the only sure fire way to lose weight permanently is to restore balance on the mental and emotional levels. Yes, you can lose weight physically by exercising and going on diets, but if you do not balance the cause within, the weight will come back. If you have ever lost bundles of weight only to put it back on, this is the reason why.

Every illness, injury or dis-ease has a specific set of mental and emotional causes to it. With weight issues, the cause mainly revolves around thoughts and feelings of shame. Most people that are obese, or highly overweight, had a situation or situations when they were young in which they were humiliated and felt ashamed as a result.

Being overweight represents having built a psychological wall around you, a barrier of fat to shield you from the outside world. It is common for people with excess fat to be deeply sensitive and they find it hard to take a deep, hard look at themselves in the mirror. It is also common for people to gain weight as a protective psychological barrier against the opposite sex. These people believe that their obesity will not be attractive to the opposite sex and they will therefore avoid being hurt, humiliated or emotionally abused by them.

Only by balancing these inner perceptions can a person lose weight and keep it off. If these inner changes are not made, the body will continue to communicate to us until we get the message and restore balance within us. Once the inner changes have been made, the physical will change accordingly. This is how it works with weight loss and with all other illnesses, injuries or dis-eases. There is no need for forced medication, diet or exercise, as they do not and cannot ever heal the cause. When you address and balance the cause within you, the physical effect will disappear automatically, without any extra physical effort on your part.

What Do They Mean, "Life Is Just an Illusion?"

Most of us go through our entire lives believing that everything we see in front of us is solid, is real. We never question the nature of the universe or the validity of our senses. Do we even know that there is more to life than what we perceive with the five senses? Most of us would have to answer this question with a “no”. Do we really know what we are looking at each day? What we are touching, feeling, smelling, hearing?

We are all accustomed to and used to the idea that the universe is solid and real. We touch, smell, taste, see and hear things constantly, for this is how we perceive our universe isn’t it? According to our five senses, everything we come into contact with is just as real as we are. To most people, if you can’t experience it with these five senses it does not exist.

This is where it gets interesting, and where we either get confused or lose interest. What we perceive with these five senses, in reality, is only but a small portion of all that exists. Additionally, what we touch, smell, taste, see and hear, i.e. what we sense, is not actually real; as nothing sensed is real. All motion is a simulation, it is an illusion. All we perceive with our senses is motion, motion of light. Motion is not real, although it simulates that which is real.

If this is the case, then what is real? The answer is quite simple, stillness. Stillness of what you might ask? It is none other than Light. Walter Russell, in his timeless classic, The Secret of Light, explains, “Light cannot be seen; it can only be known. Light is still. The sense of sight cannot respond to stillness. That which the eyes ‘feel’ and believe to be light is but wave motion simulating the idea if Light.

When man sees the light of the sun he believes that he is actually seeing the light when the nerves of his eyes are but ‘feeling’ the intense, rapid, shortwave vibrations of the kind of wave motion which he senses as incandescence. Man likewise cannot see darkness. The nerves of his eyes which sense motion slow down to a rate of vibration which he can no longer ‘feel’.”

In layman’s terms, what we see as light is not actually real light; it is but simulated light as an extension of the real Light. It is the same with matter, as matter is but simulated light, it is not the Light itself. The physical universe, where we are currently, is composed of simulated light only, in the form of motion. Motion can only sense motion, it cannot sense stillness. In other words, our five senses can only perceive motion (illusion), and not stillness (reality). This is why Jesus, as recorded in the Bible, said, “Judge not, that ye be not judged.” Why did he say this? Quite simply, because it is impossible to judge accurately with the senses, as the senses do not perceive that which is accurate, i.e. that which is real, in the first place.

Walter Russell adds further in his book thus mentioned, “Perhaps the confusion which attends this idea would be lessened if we classify everything concerning the spiritual universe, such as life, intelligence, truth, power, knowledge and balance as being the ONE LIGHT of KNOWING, and everything concerning matter and motion as being the TWO SIMULATED LIGHTS of thinking.” Put simply, we cannot know anything real through thinking, as thinking only perceives motion, which is illusion. It is like a mirage. The mirage reflects the idea of that something, although it is not that something.

As summarised by Russell, “The light which we think we see is but motion. We do not see light. We FEEL the wave vibrations set up by the motion which simulates light, but the motion of electric waves which simulate light is not that which it simulates.” This is what it means that life is just an illusion. It is not life itself that is an illusion, but what we think we perceive life to be. The world that we think we see is not the world that really is. Our life is nothing but an accumulation of ‘senses’ experiences which we have interpreted and given meaning. Without judgement, life just is.

What we perceive as being ‘bad’, ‘negative’, ‘devastating’, ‘hard’, etc., are according to our senses, our thinking. Without thinking, none of these things would exist. Most of us live our entire lives caught up in our senses, being stuck in thinking; as this is where we think reality exists. The truth is the exact opposite. Our thinking is limited to illusion, as thinking can only perceive motion. Motion is the simulation of stillness, as stillness is all there is, although our senses tell us otherwise.

So then, with this knowledge, how do we live in reality? We live in reality by living in stillness, which exists only in the now. The past and the future are based on motion. Neither the past nor the future exists, except in our thinking. Stillness is who we really are. As we step out of our thinking and silence our minds, what do we find? Nothing but stillness. We are that stillness. That is who we really are. We are the consciousness, the very awareness that underlies all thought and sensing.

We have the opportunity to live in the moment of now, or to live in the past or future. One is reality, the other illusion. The one entails that everything is perfect, the other that it needs to be changed. The one exists in perfect love and acceptance, the other in fear and separation. Many people never get this because it is too simple. They spend their entire lives searching for some wonderful, amazing, world shattering truth or teaching, never realising what they are searching for is constantly in front of them. It is our choice to which course we pursue in life. When we choose to live in the now, in stillness, we live in reality. When we choose to live in the past or future, in our thinking, which is motion, we live in illusion.

What is Our True Potential?

The answer to this question has been a topic of discussion since the dawn of time itself. But in order to understand the answer fully, one needs to fully comprehend one simple fact. The very essence of our being is of a dual nature. One is real, the other just an illusion. The real part of us, the spirit, that immortal aspect of us, had it's existence before we were born into this physical body. The illusionary part of us, the ego, that mortal aspect of us, came into existence when we were born into this life with a physical body.

This is such a fundamental truth of our existence, yet so very few people have a knowledge of it, yet alone understand it. This is especially so in the western civilisations as there is such a huge focus on the physical, worldly aspect of life that the spiritual, unseen part of life is often completely overlooked and disregarded. But this very fact remains even when knowledge of it is absent, that human's and life share a common bond of having a dual nature, one being physical and the other being spiritual. The spiritual part of life is reality. One of the fundamental laws of the universe is the law of cause and effect. The spiritual aspect of life in all its forms is the cause level. And the physical aspect of life in all its forms is the effect level.

Let me ask you this question. Where do most people place all their attention and awareness? Is it on the spiritual, cause level; or the physical, effect level? That's right, most people only have their awareness in the physical, effect level of reality. Now remember, the physical aspect of life is an illusion, it is not real. The physical merely reflects the effects of things that are taking place on another, deeper level. And that deeper level is the spiritual level, the level of true reality. This is the level where all things existed BEFORE they became physical. That's right, ALL things that have previously existed, do now exist and will ever exist physically had their existence first spiritually.

This truth is consistent through all of life. All things on this planet have a dual nature, including Human Being's. Now our TRUE potential exists in only one of these aspects of our being. The problem is, most of us Human Being's believe our true potential is found and expressed in the physical aspect of ourselves. This couldn't be further from the truth. The truth is this, that you are a spiritual being have a short physical experience. The truth is that you existed long before entering this world as a baby with a physical body, and you will exist long after you leave this world through the process we call death.

You see the nature of the ego is separation. The ego is limited by our beliefs, values, thoughts and perceptions. When you look at life through the ego you are destined to encounter fear, anger, hurt, sadness etc.. All emotions are created from judgement. The day you stop judging the world, and others in the world, is the day you will never experience another emotion. Emotions are the physical bodies response to judgements and perceptions taking place in your mind. Remember the physical is the effect level, not the cause. So in order for something physical to be created, it first had to exist in the non physical.

When you live life through the ego aspect of your being, you are automatically limited. Looking at life through the veil of ego is like living in a dream. In this dream you only see things according to your beliefs, values and perceptions. You do not see life as it really is, you see life as you are according to your beliefs, values and perceptions. It is not possible to experience life as it really is in this dream like state. This is why it is an illusion. And the funny part is that we live life as though the illusion was reality. Funnier still is the fact that we created the illusion and then believe it is reality without even knowing it. Trust me I know as I have been there and am still there in many facets of  life.

So then where does our true potential lie? It is in the other half of our nature, the spiritual, immortal part of us. Some refer to this as our conciousness, the untainted awareness that lies beyond our thoughts. This awareness is accessible only in moments of peace and clarity. It is the stillness that exists beyond thoughts and is accessible through meditation and other such practices. This state of pure conciousness and presence is where your true potential lies. It is the immortal aspect of yourself, the real you so to speak. This is the part of you that possesses all the seeds of Divinity and unlimited potential.

As a person gets in touch with this aspect of themselves a whole new world opens up to them. An aspect of themselves they never knew existed. When you go through your day to day life looking through the real aspect of yourself it is a completely new experience. It is through this pure conciousness that you see life as it really is. Emotions do not exist when you live from this aspect of yourself. Emotions are replaced by states of being, or in other words, the true parts of yourself. You realise that you do not need to be anyone other than who you are in this state. All judgement is non existent from this aspect of yourself. Separation is also non existent as all things are one and equal. A person is only able to express their true nature and potential when they get in touch with this immortal aspect of themselves. It is here that we must seek to live from. It is here where we get in touch with the reality of who we are and what we can really achieve in this life and beyond.

 

The truth is that each Human Being on this planet has unlimited potential as a Son or Daughter of the Divine. Call this Divine personage or essence what you may, but the truth is that each of us has the same blueprints within as inherited from our Divine parentage. Remember we are each beings of a dual nature. One is real, one is an illusion. One is spiritual, the other physical. One is conciousness, the other ego. One is our true potential, the other our fake potential. It is our choice which side we live from. No one can make the choice for you. 

Knowledge is not enough. For knowledge to work it needs to be put into action, and that also is your choice. You can either live from the cause side of life where you create the life you want; or you can live on the effect side of life where your life is created for you by forces outside of yourself. Either way it is your choice.
