Re: Macrobiotics + Cigarettes?
I see it as a matter of personal choice.
At the end, everyone's practice is different. Everyone does what works for them.
Coming from a certain condition, I know that I can never balance out smoking, so I don't go there. But I believe that people who want to smoke, an find a way to balance it out.
I personally haven't seen any MB teahcers who smoke that coughed throught a lecture, but I have seen a long term MB practitioner taking a cigarette after running 25 kilometers.
That is not to justify anyone, especially not the tobacco industry, but I do believe that there are far more critical problems for the MB community to deal with than tobacco, such as genetic engineering, extreme use of pesticides, abusing lands in developing countries - all the things that endanger the very basic things that sustain us and nurture us - organic grains and veggies...
