In this way, he bridges the truths expressed in ancient Oriental philosophy and in the teachings and symbology of the early Christian Church.
¦ By putting the Seven Universal Principles in the familiar language and imagery of the Bible, Ineson makes macrobiotics truly accessible to those with a Western religious upbringing.
He also points out the practical application of the Seven Principles in our daily lives. In a closing chapter, he offers personal accounts of how macrobiotic practice can affect spiritual growth, and gives suggestions for both physical and spiritual exercises, drawing from a wide variety of religious traditions.
¦ The Way of Life is an important resource book, with an extensive bibliography, an index of biblical quotes, and a multitude of references from two millennia of the Judeo-Christian tradition.
