The Searchless Raw Diet
A Half-Day Workshop
One of the many unique characteristics of the diet recommended
by Adi Da is that is it searchless. Most people use food
as a means to fulfill their general search for pleasure in and
through the body. In the context of a spiritual practice in which
one is already happy (by actually communing with the Divine
throughout the day), one can adopt a very different relationship
to diet: where the choice and quantity of food is selected simply
for the purpose of lawful management of the body (assimilating
necessary nutrients, maintaining or restoring health, etc.), without
attempting to use food to solve some other problem (for example,
hoping that stuffing oneself with "junk food" will make that knot
in the stomach area go away or at least, allow one to be temporarily
immunized to the pain), and without attempting to use food to
fulfill any kind of physical, spiritual, or religious ideal (such
as: "raw" = "pure"; or meat eater = "bad", vegetarian = "good";
etc.).
Someone who rightly practices diet and fasting in the manner I recommend naturally enjoys physical well-being. Someone who exploits diet for pleasure has fun and then suffers. You may choose one or the other approach to life.
You can have fun and suffer, or you can enjoy a continuous sense of well-being and enjoy freedom from the negative exaggerations of physical existence.

Green Gorilla is an amazing book because it is
simple yet comprehensive at the same time. Being the author of several raw food books myself, I found that I couldn't put
this book down. Avatar Adi Da Samraj powerfully conveys the numerous benefits of the raw food diet. I am especially impressed
with the way he ties overating with ego-bound addiction to pleasure. I recommend that everyone read this book.
