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

to include this information for you as it appeared in ‘The

New York Times.’

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.

We take certain things for granted. And eating fruits as part 

of our daily diet is one such thing. Therefore I would like youto pause and introspect why you take fruits, or why fruits be

the part of human diet?

I give you a few hints:

WHY DO YOU EAT FRUITS?

1. For taste Yes/No/ don’t Know

2. Because these are essential Yes/No don’t Know

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.

FRUITS THE ESSENCE OF LIFE VIGOR

Fruits the Essence of Life Vigor Page 20

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
