Botanical
Orders for Szechuan, Western Chinese, Tibetan,
and Indian Days
Advanced Level of Diet on Miryai Mt.
In the Living Gods, Let the
hallowed Light of Transcendent Truth be praised. Let the Sweet Mystery
of Miryai awaken in the heart of hearts.
The Foods listed below are those associated with the
first of five rotational days. They can be used to construct a Szechuan,
Western Chinese, Tibetan, and Indian Cuisine and menu. (In order
to adhere to the principles of rotating foods in ones diet, it is important
not to add foods not listed below on one of every 5 days. To keep a balance
between the 5 food groups of earth, water, fire, wind and zephyr it is
important to eat an equal amount of food from each group. These factors
create some challenges, especially when trying to create a specific cuisine
such as Japanese, but it is possible as the 3 menu examples below will
show.)

CHINESE-INDIAN FOODS GROUPED BY MEAL & BOWL
BOWL CONTENT for VARIOUS MEALS
ON DAY 3 (Chinese Cuisine)
(Foods in Parenthesis are from
other Bowl Categories & Should Usually Not Exceed 49%)
The meals and times outlined below are suggestive
only. They are restricted to 2/5 of the day, leaving a 14 hour fasting
window. The two 5 hour periods have different protocols. One is for fattier
foods and non starchy carbs like salads, stir fries, avocados, flax oil,
tofu, garbonzos. The other 5 hour period is starch heavy, with little added
fats. The order of their observance depends upon the time of day most energy
is needed. If heavy work or exercise is in the morning, then the starch
period is observed in the morning, if more energy is needed in the afternoon
then the fattier block of time is in the morning and the carb heavy meals
are moved to the afternoon. (Underweight individuals might want to mix
fattier meals with starchy ones, but normal or overweight individuals should
keep them as separate as possible.)
The following is part of 5 Cuisines

COLOPHON: This
grouping of edible plants was made by me, Yesai, on Miryai Mt. in late
2021 as a revision of the outdated Chinese 5 Element system. It was made
in an attempt to develop a balanced dietary program based upon the realities
of modern botanical classifications and on practicalities of growing,
processing and preparing one's
own nutrient dense food. It was formulated in partial response to the quote
of Bardaisan about the need to balance the five types of food as well as
in an attempt to modernize and improve the Five Element system encountered
in traditional Chinese medicine.
