Water is composed of two hydrogen atoms combined with one atom of oxygen. We can do much better than the rhythm of breathing air. We should be absorbing the light directly from the source. We should all be lightarians. You will also need to give them up one at a time.

We know where we started and where we are going. The fall and the return to the garden are only segments within this Platonic year, or within even greater cycles beyond it.
