God how I wish I knew how to do this.

Me: Jamie, have you heard about that guy who feeds himself on energy alone. He says that for the last 70 years he’s had nothing to eat or drink. I think he puts some weird stuff on his head like some special substance. They have had him sequestered for the last, I don’t know, thirty days or so and he’s had absolutely nothing.

(Pause)

Me: Isn’t’ that weird?

Jamie (laughing): No, I have not heard of him! Does he like breathe air in?

Me: I don’t know. Some kind of energy I guess. Will we be able to do that (pause) and will it be low calorie!

Jamie laughs.

Me: Will we be able to subsist on energy alone since we are energy even though we have a physical body? (Pause) Which is also energy, of course.

Erik: You’re right; you’re right, and yeah. And as we look at it now, the food that we’re eating, most of it’s completely unnecessary.

Me: I know. How will we learn? I mean, how will be able to do that? If I stopped eating now and had nothing to drink, I would die! So, how can we absorb the energy around us in order to sustain our lives?

Erik: First of all, you have to believe in it for it to work.

Me: Ah! Yeah.

Erik: And you have to understand how energy communicates and what types of energy your body needs. There’s such a variety.

Me: Oh! Is the energy based on the vibrational energy?

Erik: Yes, and the quality.

Me: What do you mean by quality. Intensity?

Erik: Yes. It’s the same as how hands on healing works or intent, prayer, all these things. I mean, we’re young as a culture. We’re just coming into it. How long have we been talking and teaching about manifestation and law of attraction?

Me: Yeah.

Erik: You know, this is still new on our plate, and we’re just looking at it as focusing on getting joy or getting money or the job that you want or the relationship that you want. We’re not evolving yet in the concept of us using energy to make food to allow our bodies to survive. We’re still so stuck on the concept of being human. There’s going to be a point where you find more of these people and we’ve found them all throughout history, Mom.

Me: Oh!

Erik: Even the monks, like this is nothing new, not eating for long stents of time. Nothing new.

Me: Okay. Interesting. Sure would cut down on my grocery bill! (And my thighs).
