Whisky

[HotCoil]

I know a lot of Zevists are repelled by alcohol and drugs

What about you?

Indulgence not compulsion

 

[Desdemona_666]

Enjoy in moderation, do not get drunk. Avoid chronic use at all costs.


If you feel uncomfortable even from a glass or two, then it is best to avoid it at all.

 

[Desdemona_666]

Also, it’s that kind of alcoholic beverages that does not have any benefits, it just makes you drunk. The best of alcohols is the wine. Others are just poison (not sure about beer, but real beer, not industrial crap).

I'm not sure who you are referring to with "what about you" as we are all Zevism here.
Personally I don't drink any alcohol, ever. I find it pretty useless and the fact that even on low doses it's unhealthy is known.

Drug abuse including alcoholism is a weakness that can be seen in charts.

I try not to drink at all. And when I do drink, I do not overdo it.

The Gods pretty much don't bother you that much over some alcohol use as long as its not compulsive and getting you in trouble or getting over drunk.

BUT

most certainly if you touch weed or any of the Drugs they will come directly to you and tell you not to or throw it away.

That is my experience take it as it is. Bael is the one who is trying to help me on the correct path with this stuff. He has been very helpful in keeping me away from drugs.
He doesn't like me touching tobacco either.


I am just going to straight up tell my experience. Take it as it is but if you get in over your head in this its nothing but problems.

I know this is a controversial topic and I'm not an advocate of drug and alcohol abuse - clearly, why would I want to be that? I was curious if anyone here is transparent enough to share what they like to do in "moderation". I made clear in my message originally that I understand fully that the majority of Zevists are against.

abuse
verb

use (something) to bad effect or for a bad purpose; misuse.
"the judge abused his power by imposing the fines"

Also, it’s that kind of alcoholic beverages that does not have any benefits, it just makes you drunk. The best of alcohols is the wine. Others are just poison (not sure about beer, but real beer, not industrial crap).

I have read that there are many health benefits of drinking whisky (in moderation, as per your first reply). The theory is that the barrels absorb the energy from the surrounding area and that's where the whisky get its 'character' - and I don't know whether you've been to Scotland, but you only have to drive a few miles and the accent and landscape changes quite drastically - so does the whisky. Not all whisky is made "to get you drunk" unlike - for example - Vodka.

I'm not sure who you are referring to with "what about you" as we are all Zevism here.

You, as in the subjective version of "you". Yes the majority of people here are Spiritual Zevists - myself included, but I'm pretty sure not all Spiritual Zevists are the same - we're liberated here, right? Appreciate you sharing your view though.

Drug abuse including alcoholism is a weakness that can be seen in charts.

What is alcholism though? What I do not understand is why the mere mention of Whisky sparks many here to automatically associate it with drug abuse and being an alcoholic. I would love to learn more about reading charts however I am struggling to find resources on this. Appreciate your views.

Years ago, especially before I've been an Zevism, I drank alcohol, specifically beer, but now it's causing me adversion and I can't even smell it.

I see, another man of culture

I will have a glass of red wine maybe once a week or biweekly.

It is a red wine I make myself. I will not touch wine from the store as it is made with additives.

The wine I make is made from organic ingredients.
I juice my own fruit. Use organic sugar or honey. And add the yeast that you get from the store.

And when I pour myself a glass, it's just 1/4 of the 8oz wine glass.

Nothing wrong with a little drinking here and there. Ancestors made wine. I learned to make it the traditional way.

For me I cut alcohol and many sodas a long time ago but there are only a very few non mainstream brands I like. It's just that you know it's filled with crap so why bother but I do understand some people have grown fond of these for a long time and can't resist having it once in a while.

You'll grow out of it, for me it just doesn't taste the same anymore and perhaps due elevating ones spiritual state you become more aware of things consciously and subconsciously and the things you've perceived have greatly changed and this is why meditation is a great help for such addictions.

The more union you have with your body and soul you may find some things incompatible spiritually and/or further realize how so physicaly it's to ones lifestyle and this has been a problem with humanity as they've been almost entirely shut off from spiritual awareness and the yehuborim have been captilising off of this immensely, it's one big chain.

Took a sip of some coca-cola and I'm wondering how I use to like that stuff all these years but wine still holds up once in a while

It’s really not a big deal if you’re fairly mentally healthy and have no addiction problems. It’s nice at dinners and for social events for others to relax. At certain points in meditation, when energies are high, it doesn’t really do anything at all, and energy just dissipates it from your system quickly. I use to get tipsy and loose off of one glass, and I’m all for getting a little silly and letting go here and there. Sometimes that alone is really good for certain people, but learning how to do this through meditation is obviously better.

 

[ShadowTheRaven]

I don't find it harmful to occasionally drink beer, wine, or whiskey to socialize. But if you drink with the purpose of being intoxicated, drunk, or in other terms "getting fucked up" then yeah, something's wrong with you. If you have alcoholism in the family, it's best not to drink at all.

By “that alone” I mean letting go and being silly here and there, only if they can retain a lesson from that without having to drink again. Lol. I wouldn’t say alcohol is good health wise for anyone.
