FOREWORDBYPROFESSORM.RAMAKRISHNAN

Eatingcookedfood is the main causeforthe violence whichtheworldiswitnessing

today. We have to come out of this habit. If weeat,only natural foods, such as fruits and nuts and drink only waterand live a simplenatural life,wewill gain healthy life unparallel happiness. Thistruthhasbeenbroughtoutinthisbook,withmypersonalexperienceaswell as with the help ofscientific explanations. Right from childhood, I had a likingfornatural life. Also, I followed the advice given by Mahatma Gandhi and stoppeddrinkingcoffee,tea andsodaandstoppedeatingnonvegetarianfoods. I went of Chennai city, to look for a job. There I came into contact with Mr.M.K. Pandurangam and took up teaching job in Kanya Gurukulam, which he was running at Kaladipettai. While workingthere,I PromotedoneNGObynameWorldPeaceCentreata village called Naappaalayam near Chennai. I invited Mr. Pandurangam to inaugurate that center. In the inaugural function, Mr. Pandurangam advised me to work on the subject of NaturalFood,whichWouldhelpthehumanity. I started working on that subject sincerely. I changed my diet from cooked foodto natural food.Atthat point of time, I got marriedtoMrs.Alwaarammaal.Iadvised heralso to change over to natural food, from cooked food, since she was suffering with some ailments.Shecameoutofthoseailments,aftersheswitchedovertonaturalfoodtotally.

The experience we gained ourselves and also the knowledgewe gained by readingthe books written by people like Rovanessian, Kellog, Arnold Ehret, Carrington, Wilson, Dr. Sheldonand Dr.Christine Nolfi have madeusmoreinvolved in living natural life.Topass on ourexperience to this worldand to make theentireworldpopulationreapthebenefltof healthy life , we have established the Good Life Ashram' at Sivasailam. This place is situated at the foot hillsofPothigai HillsinThirunelveliDistrictinTamilNadu. Mr.M.M. Chinnaandaar is my college mate as well as President of Selam District, Tamil teachers Association. He is responsible for bringingout this book. This book gives tipsforleading healthy life. Igive guranantee that whoever reads this book and implement the suggestions givenintheirownlife,Willleadahealthy,diseasefreelife. Thosewho have thecourageofconviction,inleadingadiseasefreelife,wouldchange over to naturalfood immediately. Others can change gradually.I welcomethe people, who havealreadychangedfromeatingcookedfortonaturalfoods. By boiling food items in water or frying in oil heating on fire,the become poisons. We call the above said actas cooking. The poisons which enter our body graduallyis the causeforgraying,loosingeyesightandgettingdiseases. The graduallykilling cooked food,attacksthe brain which in turncausesmadnessand sexual aberration and give rise to bad habits. An English proverb says God created fruits for the healthy life of human beings, whereas Satan created cooking, for killing human beings.

1.DISEASEANDITSORIGIN
Whatisdisease?
Disease meansbecomingweak.Wheneverourbodychangesfromnormalconditionto aweakercondition,wecallthatasdisease.

Whatisthecausefordisease?
Though there are many explanations for this question, the root cause for getting diseases has finally been discovered. That food is not available to our body, sincewe eat cooked food. Cooked food acts as poison to kill the cells, insteadof helping thegrowth. Cookedfoodandallotherreadymadebeveragesgraduallycausethebodytobecomesick

Howtocurethedisease?
The first step to come out of the disease, is to avoid, adding further poison to the body. We have to take the helpofNaturalfoods for this purpose. Instead of following the above course, today people rely on allopathy system of healing, which only addsfurther chemicals to the body. Initially you may feel, that you are getting cured. But as the treatment continues, more and more chemicals get ingested into the body, which causes irreparabledamagetothebody.

Diseaseisonlyone:
Disease is only one. But allopathy system of healing, which isthe most popular of all, call them with various names, If the head aches, it is called headache. If the stomach aches, it is calledstomachache.Basedonthenameofthepart,thenameofthedisease.But thecauseforalloftheseisonlyone.

Curealsoisonlyone:
If the disease is only one, the curealso hasto be only one. True healing is possible, only through natural methods. By eating fruits alone, we can comeout ofany disease. By eatingonlyfruits,weareavoidingthepoisons,thatwouldotherwiseaccumulateinthebody. And the poisons whichare already embeddedinthebody,willstartcomingoutthroughour excretary organs. Afterthecompletionofthisprocess,ourbodywillreachthenormalstate andwillcontinuetoremaininthatstatewithgoodhealth. The moment , we stop eating cooked food, the accumulation of poisons in our body stops. At this stage, if we observe fasting simultaneously taking sun bath and drink pure water, our body will reach normal state. Thereafter, if we eat only fruits, our body will remainstrongandhealthy. In this world only human beings and their petanimalsand birds suffer with diseases. The rest of the livingbeings do notsuffer diseases, since theyalleattheirnaturalfoodand live natural life. The fish, birds and animals do not have kitchens and they do not go to

hospitals and medical shops. They do not have any knowledge about medicines. Even without the above, they all live happy life. There is no comparison between their life and thatofhumanbeings.

Withnaturalfooditisalwayshappiness:
When we eat only natural food, our health will be like that of birds and animals in nature. It is not impossible, to live that kind oflife.It needscourage and conviction. One canmakeabeginningwithnaturalfood,onetimeinaday.

2.OLDAGEANDDEATHARENOTNATURAL

Oldageanddeathdonothappennaturally.Bothareresultsofouractionsonly.
Whatisoldage?
When we eat cooked food, every day poisons accumulate in our body. Such accumulations are thrown out by our cleaning organs. However when we keep on adding these poisons, to our body, due to continuousheavy work, our cleaningorgans loose their strength. When they loose their strength, thepoisonswhich are notcleanedfully, stagnate insideourbodies.Becauseofthisphenomena,bothinternalaswellasexternalorgansloose their strength, and we start ageing. From the above, it isclear that for oldage,stagnating poisons are the main cause. Therefore if the stagnating poisons are eliminated, even the peoplewholookold,wouldlookyoung.Thisisaprovenfact.

Howtoavoidoldagelook?
Outofthousandsof birds, whichliveonnaturalfoods,wecannotmakeout.whichare youngand whichareold.Likewise,outofthousandsofantswecannotmakeout,whichare young and which are old. From our ancient literature, we understand that our saints retainedtheiryoungagelooksforalongduration. Our old age,grayinganddevelopingcataractareallindicationsofdiseasedconditions. As long as our blood vessels areflexible and smooth. Itmakes our body remain young. In

people we eat cooked food, the poisons generated from that food clog the bloodvessels. Consequently they look old. People who eat natural food and have good habits look younger. With natural food, it is possible to have younger look for a longer durationand postpone ageing process. After switching over to natural food, hundred percent. you can noticeyourself,thatyouarelookingyoung.

Whatisdeath?
Any living being, whichliveson natural food, do not dienaturally. Death occurs due to two reasons. One is when the body is unable to throw out poisons and the body parts loose their strength and totally become inactive, we call that stage as death. The other reason is when they are attacked by other living beings or objects so severely that they immobile and then die. Except for the above two causes, there is no other way, death is caused. This isthe reasonwhy healthexpertshavesaid thatthereisnonaturaldeathforliving beings. Death occurs only due to external attacks or due to the effect of natural acts. As long as we live with natural food, and not attacked externally, we will continue tolive steady life. Like this, humanbeingscanliveforhundredorevenmorenumberofyears.Our body had been created to live that kind of life. We have read about people, whohave lived formanycenturies. Scientists who had done researchonhuman body arewondering whyhumanbeingdie at all. It has the capacity to repair by itself. If we observe its constitution, there is no possibilityforitsdeath.Itisasurprisetonote,thathumanbeingsaredying.

Theobservationsofsomescientistsaregivenbelow. 1. Accordingto theBritish ScientistMr.Monroe When we haveconducted researchonhuman body, we realizedthat ithas been createdinsuchaway that it will never die. Wecouldnotfindanysymptomthatitwillleadtoits death.Thehumanbodyhasbeencreatedwithsuchperfection. 2. Accordingto theEnglishScientist Sir Issac Newton Outofallcreations, by God, human beings have been created in such a way, that theyremain youngalways. 3. According to the American Scientist Mr. Briton Burg The human body whichhas been created withsuch perfect glands and organs indicate,that they have been created in such a way, that they will liveforever, without death 4. According to the English Scientist Mr. Chris By observing fast and by eatingnaturalfood,livinglongisanachievableevent. 5. According to the Scientist Arthur Clark There is no exact reason for early death ofhumanbeings.Humanbodyhasthecapacitytogrowbyitself repairbyitself,purifybyitself,renewbyitself,andtorelivebyitself.Such anexcellentcreationhasnodeathatall.

Whyhumanbeingsdie?
Wehavenow information about microscopic livingbeings, whichhavebeenalive,for

a long duration. When living beings which have no growth as well as strength, can live without diseases, thehuman beings which have growth as wellasstrength,shouldnotdieat all.Suchadeathisashamefulthingforthehumanity. So for, no equipment has been invented, in this world, which has the highest perfection, similar to a human being. In spite of such perfection, we see the decaying of human body. What is the reason for this? The capacity of human body also has some limitation. We destroy it to such an extent that it becomes impossible for itto repairand recoup itself. By feeding with cooked food and medicines, we destroy the body. Thus results the death in one way. Death also occurs due to accidents caused by equipments developedtoimproveourstandardofliving.

Thebestserviceanyonecanrendertohumanityistomakethemhealthy:
Allover theworld,people aresuffering with incurablediseases. Advisingandguiding them to change overto natural food, from cookedfoodis theimmediateserviceneededto humanity.Humanityhastobethankful,tosuchpeoplewhodothatservicetoday. Mr.M.K. Pandurangam, did yeomen service to humanity, by guiding them on natural foods in the place of cooked food. In the year 1934, he wrote and published the book Mans food unveiled, whichtellsthebestfoodmeantforhumanbeings.Hededicatedhis life for this cause. Humanity is indebted to him, for ever, for this service. In the similar way, Mr, Rovanessian did yeomen service to humanity in lran. He wrote the book Raw Eating'',whichgivesvaluableinformationonchildmortalityetc.

3.KITCHENANDTHEPOISONSGENERATEDTHERE
Kitchen is more dangerous than atom bomb. We all knowthat atom bomb iscapable
of destroying humanity totally. the kitchen is more dangerous than Atom bombs to humanity. Atom bomb kills peopleinone shot. Whereas kitchendestroystheculture,body and life of human beings. It destroys gradually and converts each and every human being into astorehouseofdiseases.Cookedfoodistherootcauseforallthebadhabitsofhuman beings. This is very clearly brought out in his book "Raw eating" written by Mr. Rovanessian. According to him, eating cooked foodcauses accumulationof poisonsinthe body. Andthese poisons inturn are thecause for wars, jealousfeelings,theft,murdersand sexualaberrationetc.

Parentsarethemurderers:
When a mother starts giving coffee, tea and cooked food to her baby which is still suckling she has laid the foundation for gradual poisoning and killing the child with diseases. According to Rovanessian, the day the mother starts feeding her child with cooked food, that day itself she has embarked on thejob ofkilling herbaby. The mother who suckletheir babies,will producepartially poisoned milk. Addedtothis isthefeeding of baby with cooked food. With the above said two sources of poisons, the baby suffers immensely.Therecannotbeanyotherreasons,forthecryingofbabythantheabove.

Whenarewegoingtodismantlekitchenfromourhouses?
No other living being wears spectacles like human beings. The kingfisher bird spots

the fish in the lakeorwell. How sharp is the eye sight of Kingfisherbird, comparedtothe human beings?. The eaglewhich fliesat a great height in the sky spots the chicken on the ground and it picks it up as its prey. We have to compare our eye sight, with than of the eagleandrealizethetruth. Lots of peopleare dying dueto cancer,T.B.etc.Thiskindofdeathsarenotoccurring to other living beings. The main reason for this is they do not convert natural food into poisonous food like we do by cooking. By eating cooked food even the pet animalsand birds suffer with diseases. When we eat natural food inthe naturalformwithoutcooking, wecansaveourselvesfromanydisease.

4.NATURALFOODANDHEALTH
Whenwe eat natural foodsandlivenaturallife.Wearesuretoliveahealthylife.This
truthhasbeenexperiencedbymanypeopleintheirlives.

Wecanlivewithoutdisease:
Disease fee life is the best wealth, one can possess is an universal truth toachieve thatwealthwhatisneededisnaturalfood.

Wecanlivelonger:
The infantile death as well as untimely deaths can be avoided through natural food. When we eat natural food, and live in natural environment there is no limit for the life expectancy.

Noplaceforfamine:
Todaysworld issuffering with famineandstarvation.Thesufferingduetofaminecan be mitigated with natural foods. By cooking and eating food items are destroyed. To produce food grains, more land area, more water and more labour force is required . Whereas to grow fruit trees, we need less land area, less water and less labour force. Peoplewouldgetmaximumrest.Withmorerest,theirthinkingfacultywouldimprove.

Povertywoulddisappear:
Whenwe eat natural food, wedonot have to eatstomachfull.Evenifweeatless,we get sufficient energy. When food grains are grown in oneacre of land.It is sufficientfor

five peopleforanyear.Inthesameland,iffruitsandcoconutsaregrown,itcantakecareof food requirement of twenty people. As people get used to natural food, the quantum of food, one needs, keep coming down, giving maximum energyand enthusiasmtowork.This changeinfoodhabit,wouldhelpinremovingpovertyfromthecountry.

Disciplinesetsin:
With natural foods, the bad habits of people will disappear gradually. According to Shantiyoga,Upanishads "with pure food, ourknowledge become purewithpureknowledge our thinking becomes pure. Pure thinking destroysunhappiness. It would take us tohigher leveloflivinginfamilylife. With natural food, our blood becomes pure. With pure blood, we get healthy body, clear mind, clear thinking and clear speech. Good habits develop naturally. With natural foods,gooddisciplinecomesautomatically.

Birthcontrolisachievedeasily:

Hence to have smallfamilyandlive happily with wealth, natural foodisthebestcourse.Inthisworld,humanbeingsaretheonly living beings, which is suffering with excessive population. Natural food would help in controllingthe population. Ithelpsin controlling all five senses,thus making life,pleasant forthepeople.

Withnaturalfoodhabitofpeoplemonsoonrainwillberegular:
Whenpeoplestarteatingfruits,intheplaceofcookedfood,thedemandforfruitswill increase. To meet that demand, farmers will start developing more fruit gardens in the place, where food grains are being produced. These fruit trees, In turn, will help in the formation of rain bearing clouds. On account of that, we will get rains regularly during monsoon season. When rains come on time, the ground water table will raise up. Water shortagewill not bethereatall.Whereverthereisthickforest coveronhills,thatareagets good rain. Where there are no trees, rain does not fall in that area . That areabecomes a desert ultimately. In rural areas, for the sake of firewoodtreesare cut. When people eat naturalfood,thereisnoneedforfirewoodandhencetreeswillnotbecut.

Bodyandmindwillremainhealthy:
When people eat natural food, the will not suffer due to constipation. Which is the basic cause for many diseases. When there is no constipation, blood will not be contaminatedand the body will remainhealthy.Thehairwillremainblack.Eyesightwillbe good. Teeth will be strong. Theskin will shine,peoplewillnotputonweight.Andtheywill beactive.Theirurineandmotionwillnotsmellbad.Peoplewouldgetsoundsleep.

5.FRUITSARETHEBESTFOODFORHUMANBEINGS

As per the constitution and the bodystructure of humanbeings, itis clear, that they
canlivebetter,withfruitdietonly.

Nonvegetarianfoodisnotmeantforhumanbeings:
Professor Carrington wrotein hisbook, Fasting and thepowerofnutritions Food as follows. In thebeginningof civilization,nolivingbeingwascreatedtoeatmeat.Asthe time passedby, whenshortage of vegetarian food became severe, theliving beingsstarted eatingthemeatandtheyhadbecomemeateaters. Human beings do not have the organs, which meat eating animals possess. Such animals have sharp nails, apart from sharp teeth, for tearing meat. The digestive juices secretedin their stomachare more acidic. Their intestinesareshort.Theyhavenogrinding teeth. They have no sweat glands on their skin. whereas the teeth, intestines and the digestivejuicesofhumanbeingsaresuitableforeatingfruitsonly,

NaturalfoodiscookedbyGod:
With sun light, God cooks all natural foods such as coconut, banana,mango, guava, dates, grapes, wood apple, custardapple, sapota, orange, papaya andtomato etc. Whenwe eat the above said foods, we get lot of benefits. This is the best food. Available in this

worldand itis sufficient for us. Once we get used to the abovesaid food, we do not need kitchen. There are many peoplein thisworld, Who eat onlythe above said food,allthree timesinadayandtheyarealllivingwithoutsufferingfromanydisease

Coconutandbananaarethebesthumanfoods:
In south India, In all temples, coconut and banana are offered to God. Since people consider these two as their best foods, they offer the same to God. People who drink countryliquorandeatmeatofferthesetwoitemstothedeity,whomtheyworship. Coconut and banana are not seasonal foods . They are available atany place in South India through out the year. Both are the best wholesome foods. Banana can be eatenfrom six months old baby to person of any age, at anytime. It is soft and easily digestible. It givesstrengthtobothbodyandmind.

Coconutcanbecallednaturallunchbox:
Out of all food items available in this world, coconut is the best. It is available throughoutthe yearin SouthIndia,The shell which is strong, protectsthe nut inside. This kind of protection isnot availableto any other foodin this world. Both food and waterare kept in one place, inside the shell and this can be called natural lunch box. The coconut gives strength to the body parts apart from giving the purest food. When coconut is consumed regularly, our skin shines bright and internal organs function well. It helps all joints to function well. The elimination of poison from blood is done effectively . Coconutistheonlyfood,whichcanbeeaten,atanystage,whileitisgrowing.

Coconutisthebesthumanfood:

Todayhehas followers inUSA., Costa Rica, England, SouthAfrica,Iran,Thailand and Srilanka. Within India, from South there are many followers. Even in North India his followersareincreasingdaybyday.

6.WAYSTOCHANGEFROMCOOKEDFOODTO NATURALFOODS
Generally nobody likes to changefromeating cooked foodtonatural food. Reason
is, we are used to cookedfood, right from childhood. Andhumanity gotused to thishabit overthousandsofyears.Thischangecanbeachievedinthefollowingways.

Somewouldchangeinstantaneously:
Thosewho areconvinced about the plus points of natural foods, compared tocooked food, can change instantaneously. Such people haveto face lot of criticism fromrelatives as well asfriends. They would feel theeffect ofthe change soon. Theirbodieswhichwere sufferingearlierwithcookedfood.Wouldstartfeelingbetterwithnaturalfood.

Somewouldchangegradually:
Out o breakfast,lunch and dinner,one should first attempt to change the dinner from cooked food to natural food. After getting used to this change, for some time, one can attempt changing the breakfast. After getting used to both the above changes, one can attempt changing the lunch. By this process, one can change gradually from cooked to naturalfood.

Changescanbemadeinourcookedfoodrecipes:
Somechanges can be made in our recipes.Asafirststep,onecanattempteatingfood without salt. Aftergetting used tothissaltlessfoodforsomeperiod,asasecondstep,they

can reduce chilly powder. They can replace the same with pepper. And in the place of tamarind one canuse lime juicewhichisavailablethroughouttheyearorsourcurdsorraw mango which is seasonal. They can eat plain rice or chappathi with curds without salt. To supplement vegetables, theycan drink vegetable juice made with beetroot, carrot, tomato, bottleguard, cucumber,basil,curryleavesandcorianderleaves.Tothis filteredjuice,they can add lime juice and honey.Those whocannot afford honey canuse jaggery to make the juice testier. Thentheycaneatfewdates.Forpreparingidlyanddosadough,useunpolished rice and black gram with skin can be used. Using unpolished rice is good, since that has betternutritionvaluecomparedtopolishedrice.

Flatriceisagoodreplacementforcookedrice:
People who are in the process of switching over from cooked food to natural food, can eat flat rice by soaking the same in water. To this, they can add shredded coconutto makeittastebetter.

RawVegetables:

It is comfortable to drink the juice than eating raw vegetables. However,vegetablesortheirjuiceisonlysecondarytoeitherfruitsorfruitjuices.

Howmuchtoeat?
The requirementoffood varies,dependingonthe work, one hasto perform. Thereis no hard andfast ruleforthis. Depending on your feeling,you canstop eating.Withnatural food,eatinglittlelessormorewillnotmatteratall.

Howmanytimesoneshouldeatinaday?
Whenone eatsnatural food, there is no hardand fast rule, about the number oftimes oneeats in aday.For those who do meditation, eating one timemealisuseful.Eating two timesalsoisnotbad.

Whentoeatfood?
Breakfast can be delayed as much as possible. Dinner has to be advanced in the evening as muchas possible. Those whoeat, one timeina day can eat between 3 to5p.m. Thosewhoeattwotimes,canhavebreakfastat9amanddinnerat5pm. The ideal timeto eat food is, wheneverwe feel hungry Compared to that, seeing the time and eating food is notthat good. However, sinceweare all engaged in some work or other, we areforced to follow timings forfood. As long as itis natural food,timing does notmatter.
