~Fruit and Enlightenment~

The Apple and Fig Tree, Buddha experienced enlightenments under.

After a period of fasting to the point of near death he recalled his childhood meditating under a rose apple tree. He vowed, "Even if my flesh and blood were to dry up, leaving only skin and bones, I will not leave this place until I find a way to end all sorrow."

He remained under that tree for 49 days. 49 days I assume of only figs...

Buddha was practicing a raw vegan mono fruit diet?

We are I believe very connected with plants/ fruits... which are condensed sunlight... after 5 days of only mangoes I was feeling a subtle communication with the mango tree ...within my cells/body. I thanked it for its divine fruits which made me feel so excellent (bliss).

Pure sustenance allows us to experience our True Self.
