Quote by James Swartz

“Food should be eaten fresh. Food is not only physical substance but shakti, or energy, a manifestation of Consciousness in living beings [...] finally, although rajas and tamas are desirable in moderate amounts, the state of mind in which food is gathered, prepared and consumed should be sattvic. Because food is given by God to sustain life, one eats with gratitude, not fear or desire. See the body as a temple or an instrument of the Divine and treat it with great love and respect. If the ultimate purpose of life is the realization of the Self and meditation the means to it, then one‘s relationship to food is important because it directly affects the quality of the mind. (pp. 72-74)”

“Mucho más tarde, aparto un ángulo de la cortina y miro por la ventanilla. Como refugiado contra Fafner, (la combi Wolkswagen) que lo recibe de la manera más paternal posible, un joven motociclista de Berna duerme sobre su motocicleta, como una extraña criatura de otro mundo. Temeroso de la lluvia, ha convertido el plástico que lleva consigo en una gran burbuja que protege ahora la máquina y su conductor. Bajo una tenue luz que viene de lejos, tiene el aire de un ángel apenas formado, visión confusa a través del plástico transparente. No sabía si Marsella es una gran ciudad, ni a qué distancia se encuentra, y nos explicó, un poco tímidamente, que no conoce a nadie en Marsella, con el mismo tono que usaría alguien que dijera: «No conozco a nadie en el mundo». Pero ahora duerme, la cabeza apoyada sobre su saco de dormir, los pies sobre el manubrio, y su rostro de adolescente está iluminado por una sonrisa apacible.”
