One of the biggest things on my mind right now is food.
I’ve spoken before about what I call the three greatest deceptions on Earth — food, love, and God. And today, I want to go deeper into the food piece.
I’m currently on a water fast, rereading a book I’ve read a few times before — it’s about living as a breatharian, people who live without food.
Yes, it’s possible.
People have done it. People are doing it.
Most would say it’s insane. But then again, people say fasting is insane, too.
There are those who can’t even imagine going a day without food, let alone exploring what it means to live free of it altogether. Yet, I recently watched a documentary about a man who did a 55-day water fast — not as an act of spiritual defiance, but to heal his body. People around him were horrified, calling it “dangerous” and “unhealthy.”
That’s how deep the programming goes.
We are absolutely consumed by food.
Our identities, our emotions, our culture, our rituals — all revolve around it.
We eat to celebrate, to comfort, to numb, to connect.
Every holiday, every event, every gathering — food is the centrepiece.
We don’t realise how much of our energy, time, and money go into simply keeping ourselves fed.
The cooking. The cleaning. The prepping. The planning.
The shopping. The money. The addiction.
And yet, most of our energy — up to 90% — is spent on digestion.
That means we’re not using that life force to create, to think clearly, to connect, or to live consciously. We’re running on empty, even when our stomachs are full.
Imagine if we didn’t need to eat every few hours.
Imagine the clarity, the vitality, the creativity that would be available if our energy wasn’t constantly pulled into digesting and excreting.
The Belief That Binds Us
The belief that we need food to survive is one of the most powerful collective programmes running on Earth.
To even question it is to be seen as delusional.
But questioning beliefs is how we break free from the matrix.
Because belief — not truth — is what keeps us bound.
We live in a world of sick, fat, addicted beings, and there’s an entire system profiting from that sickness.
Big Food and Big Pharma are two heads of the same hydra — one makes you sick, the other sells you the “cure”.
Both thrive on addiction.
And food addiction might be the most socially accepted addiction of all.
We’re told to eat three meals a day plus snacks “to keep our metabolism healthy.”
But that’s nonsense.
It’s unnatural to eat that often. It’s unnatural to be constantly digesting. It’s unnatural to be this dependent.
The Cost of Addiction
When you look around, it’s clear: our society is built on consumption.
Food, entertainment, information — it’s all about more.
All we crave is the next dopamine hit.
What if we could be free from that need?
What if food became a choice — not a dependency?
Imagine the liberation in that.
Imagine how sovereign we’d feel to say, “I can eat if I want to… but I don’t need to.”
Who Profits From Your Hunger?
The system is designed to keep you eating.
Every major food brand, every supermarket chain, every “health” product on the shelf — all trace back to the same global corporations. Vanguard. BlackRock. The same entities that own Big Pharma, Big Agriculture, and even the land itself.
And we buy it.
Because we’re addicted.
Because we’ve been told it’s good for us.
Because our taste buds have been hijacked.
A Different World
Now imagine — just imagine — a world where people no longer needed food.
Where no one was addicted, no one was sick, no one was spending their days earning money to feed a machine that profits off their consumption.
What would happen to the supermarkets?
To the corporations?
To the systems built on dependency?
They would crumble.
A humanity that doesn’t need to consume to live is a humanity that can no longer be controlled.
That’s the real revolution.
That’s sovereignty at the highest level.
Fasting as Freedom
For me, fasting has always been one of the purest paths to freedom.
It challenges everything — beliefs, attachments, identity.
It brings you face-to-face with your programming.
You start to see how emotional eating really is, how much we rely on food for comfort, distraction, and escape.
Not everyone needs to stop eating. That’s not the point.
The point is to know yourself — mentally, emotionally, spiritually, energetically, and physically — without needing anything external to sustain you.
The Innocence Beneath It All
When I speak about the innocence of humanity, this is what I mean.
We don’t know ourselves.
We don’t know the depth of what we are or what we’re capable of.
We’ve been trained to survive, not to thrive.
To consume, not to create.
To obey, not to awaken.
But if we truly knew ourselves — spiritually, divinely, energetically — I think we’d be absolutely blown away by our real potential.
Maybe we once were those radiant beings who didn’t need to eat.
Maybe we will be again.
Maybe the path to liberation isn’t through consuming more, but through remembering that we are already whole.
I’m not saying everyone should stop eating.
I’m saying — let’s question what we’ve been told.
Let’s remember that sovereignty begins with awareness.
Because when we stop being owned by our hunger, we begin to taste the freedom of our own divinity.
And that — to me — is the ultimate nourishment.
