We’d like to share some thoughts on the
meaning of the swine flu. We look upon it as a sort of hieroglyph.
Let’s decipher it some of its meanings.
Now in the popular press, we are told that
for no reason at all, a bug just happened to mutate and moreover,
took on an untoward form. This is a sort of projection, on
to the microbial, of modern life where there is are so many
unseen and unanticipated dangers lurking in the murkey waters
of ordinary existence-a letter saying you owe money for taxes
a phone call that someone is using your credit card and so
forth. We call this the “It Came from Outer Space”
syndrome.
On the other hand, we believe that the swine
flu is in a very real sense,a wholly human problem. It has
come to tell us of a very real imbalance in the world. People
everywhere, are under more pressure than ever before, to maintain
their livelihoods (and thereby their social existence) in
the face of an increasingly serious economic crisis. The stress
has no doubt affected their immune systems. Then there is
the pollution of the air we breathe and the water we drink.
There is yet another sort of pollution, namely, the electromagnetic
energy emanating from cell phone towers and wireless devices.
Furthermore there is the toxicity of highly processed, mass-produced
and artificial foods. What sort of population then, could
be more vulnerable than one in danger of losing their jobs,
clogged with chemicals, overweight, breathing polluted air
and drinking tainted water?!
Then we are treated to the spectacle of an
alienated science racing to manipulate DNA into this or that
vaccine. The tragedy is that this gives the impression that
safeguarding your health is the exclusive province of white-coated
lab technicians. Using a ridiculously remote technology, they
are out to zap, just whatever it was, that came from outer
space. A wholly different view is presented by Andreas Moritz
in his Virus Myths Exposed --The True Causes of Pandemics.
His words are cogent so we quote them at length: --
Contrary to common opinion, viruses don't kill people.
If someone is sick and also has a virus, he or she is not
sick because of the virus. A sickness must first exist before
a virus can show up. Viruses are designed to induce healing,
not illness. The symptoms such a healing effort produces
(in this case, flu symptoms such as fever, headache, dizziness,
fatigue, etc.), do not constitute the disease. Increasing
body temperature (fever), for example, is one of the body's
best methods to increase production of immune cells to deal
with toxins and then dispose of bacteria, viruses, and fungi
when they are no longer needed. Influenza is the final stage
of healing an underlying disease; the disease consists of
a buildup of toxins, heavy metals, acidic waste products,
dead cell material, and other noxious substances that could
otherwise lead to a life-threatening condition.
An infection is merely used to break down harmful substances,
like metals, drugs, chemicals, pesticides, food additives,
trans fatty acids from restaurant foods or ready made foods,
artificial sweeteners, etc. We don't need to destroy viruses;
they are on our side. Normally, some of these toxic substances
can be broken down by the body, but most of them require
bacteria to dispose of them. Some other things, however,
require solvents to dissolve and remove them. That's when
the body makes viruses or allows them to be made and spread
through the body via the blood and lymph.
Viruses are inert proteins that the body produces in order
to attack and dissolve such noxious substances. Viruses
are not living organisms, like bacteria. Unlike bacteria,
they cannot reproduce themselves because they have no digestive
system or reproductive system. The human body makes more
of these solvents when it needs to dissolve these harmful
substances, and it stops making them when the danger of
cellular suffocation has subsided. They act effectively,
just like solvents in paint cleaners.
The bottom line is that viruses can only become active
and increase in number in a toxic body that cannot be cleaned
up by bacteria or the body itself. To repeat, the human
body only creates more viruses when there is a need for
it to mop up drug chemicals, food preservatives, toxic metals
such as mercury, pesticides, medications, and animal parts
that are present inevery vaccine. To protect itself, the
body may store an enormous number of different viruses,
but they remain inactive until a need arises for them to
become active and spread to do their precious work. The
immune system produces antibodies to these viruses to remove
and dispose of most of them once the detoxification has
occurred. Vaccinating a person to invoke antibody production
interferes with the body's most basic healing mechanisms,
and I consider it to be one of medicine's most dangerous
weapons - truly a weapon of mass destruction.
Viruses have an essential role in healing.
This stands the “It Came from Outer Space” paradigm
on its head. At Living Tree Community we believe that the
swine flu has come to tell us that we are here to to get on
with the business of making ourselves more and more alive.
We would like to share with you a video we have made.
Possibly the most complex
flavor known in nature. The taste is commonly described
as nutty and sweet. You either love it or hate it, but
it's been consumed in Asia for millenia.
Fresh Durian called "King of Fruits",
has in its raw state an indescribably creamy flavor
and an unusual strong smell. Durian can be enjoyed straight
from the bag or soaked overnight and blended as a nutritious
meal and goes great with fresh coconut, cacao and vanilla.
Durian is a good source of Vitamin C,
B, manganese, copper, protein and good fats, and very
rich in tryptophan for healthy serotonin levels that
make us feel relaxed and calm.

A Letter from a Supporter
Dear Jesse,
Living Tree Community Foods has helped
me in multiple ways... With your products and the support/inspiration
that I get from your website,
I am getting better and very hopeful. When I web-researched
raw food companies, something just told me yours was
the one. The John Muir connection was one thing. I once
read a biography of him and have a spot in my heart
for him.
I even learned something about my daughter
through your website. I watched the capoeira video and
thought it was a great opportunity to learn grace, agility
and cooperation.
I also deeply appreciate your apparent
rootedness in the Creator.
I hope things are going well for you,
all of you there, and that you always experience peace
and prosperity.
I also hope you have some idea of how
grateful I am for all Living Tree does for me.
From the bottom of my heart,
Martha Morales
Denver, Colorado
