he word Taoshobuddha comes from three words,
‘tao,’ ‘sho,’ and ‘Buddha’. The word Tao was coinedby the Chinese master, Lau Tzu. It means that
which is and cannot be put into words. It is unknown and
unknowable. It can only be experienced and not expressed in
words. Its magnanimity cannot be condensed into finiteness.
The word Sho implies, that which is vast like the sky and deep
like an oc carries within its womb a treasure. It also means
one on whom the existence showers its blessings. And lastly
the word Buddha implies the Enlightened One; one who hasarrived home.
Thus, Taoshobuddha implies one who is existential, on whom
the existence showers its blessings and one who has arrived
home. The Enlightened One!

ruits are indeed the essence of life vigor.’ This is
mystical. To understand this you will have to go
deeper into the layers of consciousness. Fruits are energy.
Fruits are the manifestation of cosmic harmony, oneness. All
along the process of their growth fruits are in total harmony
with the cosmos. Fruits are in a subconscious state of
awareness. Fruits have feeling, sensitivity, and the way to
flow with totality. This is how a man comes into life as a
child pulsating with this harmony and vigor. Like the fruits
the child is also in subconscious state of awareness. And
then his inward journey begins. In this process he goes
through various layers of consciousness until he is just
conscious.
Fruits are the essence of life vigor. As a result I had decidedto call this work as ‘Fruits the Essence of Life Vigor’. The
title is meaningful in many ways.
Indeed it is a blessing that we are together. I am writing and
you are reading. This togetherness is oneness. And oneness
is blessing.

Life is a journey of transformation. Your body is the temple
of the unknown. The harmony that body creates will
certainly become the door to the beyond. The sameharmony that body creates will certainly connect you to
your being first and then to that which is – the cosmic
harmony.
Therefore love your body! Respect it! Take care of it!
Nourish it with care, compassion and love.
Begin your journey at the gross level.
It has been prepared with loving tender care and is being
served to you as a fresh platter for your nourishment both
outer and inner.
It is for the overall development of Human Consciousness
Taoshobuddha Meditations TM embarked on Health
and Healing Transformation Series. In this series
‘Meditation the Ultimate in Healing’ is published as E
Book. More titles will be released on such topics.
It is my joy that Taoshobuddha Meditations TM

This information was in The New York Times several weeks
ago as part of their ‘Spotlight on the Home’ series that
highlighted creative and fanciful ways to solve common
problems.
1. Cucumbers contain most of the vitamins you need every
day, just one cucumber contains Vitamin B1, Vitamin B2,
Vitamin B3, Vitamin B5, Vitamin B6, Folic Acid, Vitamin C,
Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Potassium and Zinc.
2. Feeling tired in the afternoon, put down the caffeinated
soda and pick up a cucumber. Cucumbers are a good source
of B Vitamins and Carbohydrates that can provide that quick
pick-me-up that can last for hours.
3. Tired of your bathroom mirror fogging up after a shower?
Try rubbing a cucumber slice along the mirror, it will
eliminate the fog and provide a soothing, spa-like fragrance.
4. Are grubs and slugs ruining your planting beds? Place a
few slices in a small pie tin and your garden will be free of
pests all season long. The chemicals in the cucumber react
with the aluminum to give off a scent undetectable to
humans but drive garden pests crazy and make them flee
the area.
5. Looking for a fast and easy way to remove cellulite before
going out or to the pool? Try rubbing a slice or two of
cucumbers along your problem area for a few minutes, the
phyto chemicals in the cucumber cause the collagen in your

skin to tighten, firming up the outer layer and reducing the
visibility of cellulite. Works great on wrinkles too!!!
6. Want to avoid a hangover or terrible headache? Eat a few
cucumber slices before going to bed and wake up refreshed
and headache free. Cucumbers contain enough sugar, B
vitamins and electrolytes to replenish essential nutrients the
body lost, keeping everything in equilibrium, avoiding both
a hangover and headache!!
7. Looking to fight off that afternoon or evening snacking
binge? Cucumbers have been used for centuries and often
used by European trappers, traders and explores for quick
meals to thwart off starvation.
8. Have an important meeting or job interview and you
realize that you don't have enough time to polish your
shoes? Rub a freshly cut cucumber over the shoe, itschemicals will provide a quick and durable shine that not
only looks great but also repels water.
9. Out of WD 40 and need to fix a squeaky hinge? Take a
cucumber slice and rub it along the problematic hinge, and
voila, the squeak is gone!
10. Stressed out and don’t have time for massage, facial or
visit to the spa? Cut up an entire cucumber and place it in a
boiling pot of water, the chemicals and nutrients from the
cucumber with react with the boiling water and be released
in the steam, creating a soothing, relaxing aroma that has
been shown to reduce stress in new mothers and college
students during final exams.

11. Just finish a business lunch and realize you don’t have
gum or mints? Take a slice of cucumber and press it to theroof of your mouth with your tongue for 30 seconds to
eliminate bad breath, the phytochemcials will kill the
bacteria in your mouth responsible for causing bad breath.
12. Looking for a 'green' way to clean your faucets, sinks or
stainless steel? Take a slice of cucumber and rub it on the
surface you want to clean, not only will it remove years of tarnish and bring back the shine, but is won’t leave streaks
and won't harm you fingers or fingernails while you clean.
13. Using a pen and made a mistake? Take the outside of the
cucumber and slowly use it to erase the pen writing, also
works great on crayons and markers that the kids have used
to decorate the walls!!
Pass this along to everybody you know who is looking for
better and safer ways to solve life’s everyday problems...

an is a universe within an outer universe. Just like
the body of the universe, the human body iscomposed of cells. These cells are interconnected by an
electromagnetic force. This force works through electrolytes
present in each cell.
Individual human consciousness is a by-product of ego and
mind. All States of pain and pleasure exist because of this
ego mind combination. It is because of this eternal pair of ego and mind that we have innumerable desires.
Man requires tremendous energy to fulfill these desires.
Unfulfilled desires cause illness and pain. This requires
methods to cure disease and pain.

This chapter purposely I began with a question – why do we
eat fruits? Answers to this question you will have to seek
within. And this is the first thing I would like you to pay
attention to by looking within. I am sure you never thought
of this before.

the part of human diet?

3. These are source of vitamins and minerals Yes/No/
don’t Know
4. Any other reason? Yes/No/ don’t Know
SEEK THE ANSWER WITHIN FIRST!
ruits are the essence of life vigor. Indeed fruits are.
When it was to be decided of the Title
Taoshobuddha, just said ‘FRUITS ARE THE ESSENCE OF
LIFE VIGOR’, and it was suggested to keep this as the title of
this work. As an explanation to the reason this is what he
said:

“‘Fruits are indeed the essence of life vigor.’ This is mystical.
To understand this you will have to go deeper into the layersof consciousness. Fruits are energy. Fruits are the
manifestation of cosmic harmony, oneness. All along the
process of their growth fruits are in total harmony with the
cosmos. Fruits are in a subconscious state of awareness.
Fruits have feeling, sensitivity, and the way to flow with
totality. This is how a man comes into life as a child
pulsating with this harmony and vigor. Like the fruits thechild is also in subconscious state of awareness.
And I have told you earlier man is energy man means life.
And life is energy. Life is an infinite reservoir of energy. On
the shore of time infinite waves go on striking. No end! No
beginning! Everything is just in the middle! You are a small
insignificant wave. You are an infinitesimal seed of infinite
possibilities. Quite naturally, the wave wants to be theocean. And naturally the seed wants to be the tree. Unless
the seed blossoms into a flower, fulfillment is impossible.
Man has an insatiable quest to be God. Before this there are
many temporary resting points or possibilities. None of
these are the Ultimate Outcome. In the night you may stay at
many places for rest. Never make these places your
permanent resting place. Only God can be your house or theresting place. ‘God’ does not mean a person sitting
somewhere, as has been conceived by almost all the
religions. God means your ultimate possibility. You cannot
attain ultimate fruition unless energy moves in the right
direction. What is the ultimate destination? God is the
ultimate destination. God is ultimate possibility.

God is formless! Without any name! God is not sitting
somewhere. God is your ultimate happening. Beyond which
there is nothing and no possibility as well. Beyond whichthere is nowhere to go. This is the ultimate destination. This
is fulfillment! You will remain restless and despondent until
you attain to this fruition. You may become rich. You may
become very famous. None of these things can ever fulfill
you. Somewhere you will continue to feel something
missing. No matter how hard you try to forget this, you will
never succeed. In a sense it is good that you cannot forget this. Otherwise the seed will miss the opportunity for
fruition. Until the seed attains to its fruition and the
fragrance merges with the infinite, there is no possibility of
fulfillment. Until the river of your life merges with the ocean
of life it will not attain any meaning. And until this happens,
even if you somehow succeed it will be the greatest failure
of your life.
For the continuation of this all requires the energy. It is
energy that becomes impetus one day for the continuation
of journey. This energy comes from a reservoir. Fruits are
unfathomable ocean of the existential energy.
Consciously you have to bring this energy out of the sub
conscious layer and bring it to the surface. And in theprocess you are embodiment of this energy.’
Therefore, ‘Fruits are the essence of Life Vigor!’”

We all think eating fruits means just buying fruits, cutting it
and then consuming these.. It is not as easy as you think. It is
important to know how and when to eat.
What is the correct way of eating fruits?
IT MEANS NOT EATING FRUITS AFTER YOUR MEALS! FRUITS
SHOULD BE EATEN ON AN EMPTY STOMACH.
If you eat fruit like that, it will play a major role todetoxify your system, supplying you with a great
deal of energy for weight loss and other life
activities.
FRUIT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FOOD. Let us say you eat
two slices of bread and then a slice of fruit. The slice of fruit
is ready to go straight through the stomach into theintestines, but it is prevented from doing so by the slice of
the bread. This is not the way to eat fruits.

Eat your fruits on an empty stomach or before your
meals!
he minute the fruit comes in contact with the food
in the stomach and digestive juices, the entire
mass of food begins to spoil. Taking fruits this way
is not the correct way.
So please take your fruits on an empty stomach or before
your meals!
You must have heard people complaining - every time I eat
watermelon I burp. When I eat during my meals or after
meals stomach bloats up. When I eat a banana I feel like
running to the toilet etc.
Actually nothing like this will arise if you eat the fruit on an
empty stomach.
Because when fruit mixes with the putrefying other food it
produces gas and as a result you will bloat!
When the whole meal rots and ferments it turns into acid.
The minute the fruit comes into contact with the food in the
stomach and digestive juices, the entire mass of food beginsto spoil. And you burp, bloat and feel uncomfortable.
So please consume your fruits on an empty stomach or
before your meals!
There other reasons as well why fruits should be taken on
empty stomach.

Graying hair, balding, nervous outburst, and dark
circles under the eyes are all common complaints that you face. These will NOT happen if you take fruits on an
empty stomach.
There is a wide spread misconception among us that certain
fruits like orange and lemon is acidic. This is misconception
again. Remember all fruits become alkaline in our body,
according to Dr. Herbert Shelton who did research on thismatter.
If you have mastered the correct way of eating fruits,
you have the Secret of Beauty, Longevity, Health, Energy,
Happiness and Normal weight.
Dr. Herbert Shelton was a American alternative medicine advocate,
author, pacifist , vegetarian, and supporter of raw Foodism and fasting cures.
Shelton was nominated by the American Vegetarian Party to run as its candidate
for President of the United States in 1956. He saw himself as the champion of
original Natural hygiene ideas from the 1830s.
When you need to drink fruit juice - drink only fresh fruit
juice.
Do Not’s of Fruit eating habit:
1. NEVER take juices from the cans.
2. NEVER even drink juice that has been heated up.
3. NEVER eat cooked fruits. Cooking fruits destroys all
nutrients. You only get to taste. Cooking destroys all the

vitamins. In modern day culinary it has become necessary to
use fruit juices as part of cooking.
It is always better eating a whole fruit than drinking the
juice.
Drink the juice, mouthful by mouthful or
slowly. This way juice mixes with saliva before
it enters the digestive canal.
If you should drink the juice, drink it mouthful by mouthful
slowly. This way juice mixes with saliva. Therefore allow the
juice to mix with your saliva before swallowing it.
You can also go on a 3-day fruit fast to cleanse your body.
Just eat fruits and drink fruit juice throughout the 3 daysand you will be surprised when your friends tell you how
