Casa de Luz☼Home
of Light☼引光之家
“The formula is a simple one, There is righteous food being served. Everyone
gets the same meal, very much like home, and the tables are community. Indeed,
there is a natural proclivity for community to happen at Casa de Luz.”
【Casa de Luz】(The House of Light in Spanish named by Nico Lopez), as its name put it, torches a new beam of life - a valuable, healthy style of living. Casa was started back to 1991, 20 years till now. Like many beneficial efforts for mankind, the efforts by leading such a journey endure a insisting karma on its road, as well as on conquering negativities inside us. 20 years on the road! One may not say it’s tough journey, it may not be an easy one either, considering 20 years is close to 1/4 of your lifetime!

【Casa de Luz is Organic Vegan】The meal, materials for the cooking are pretty "picky" in Casa de Luz. Not only the grains, rice, beans, vegetables are organic, so does the choice of the condiments the cooking used. Casa also avoid using processed food such as processed protein products as various vegetarian chickens and beefs. The wholesome mosaic plate provides a complete nutrition: multi-grains, multi-beans ensure enough proteins and fibers, green vegetables provide sufficient calcium and vitamins, special sauce paste made from wide range nuts, bean and grains provide natural fat and minerals ... 【And another important ingredient - Love】 because the cooking staff care what they are doing, they treat it a pleasure to provide people with perfect food with their 110% effort. Guided with the principal to avoid the highly processed food and seeking the original taste of its ingredient, the foods are cooked in the very simple and light way as possible: no fried, no heavy sauce like the strong sweet and salt. The style of cooking also complies with the Yin Yang balance theory of Macrobiotics. Casa de Luz, translated as the House of Light in English, not only provides the healthy meal, but also educates a healthy consciousness and the healthy living style. This integral learning helps to build an attitude, a tendency in your daily activities such as shopping in the groceries, select entry in you menu with your colleges / friends, cooking for your families, etc. Casa collects a group of elites who share the similar living style and ideals, provide a home to or a community to share and exchange the healthy and constructive info to widen and deepen the individual’s views of healthy and happy life, not only physically, but also mentally and spiritually.
【Why Organic Vegan is the best meal for health in body and spirit?】 Our feeling after meal is the most accurate feedback, esp. when comparing with the previous eating habit of heavy meat and dairy product, esp. when you are already sick and need good energy to recover. 【away from negative energy】Eating organic vegan food keeps you away from the poor side effects from the inhumane-made meat, from rBGH Growth hormone, from pesticide chemicals and other toxicants, and from the GMOs (genetic modified food). These toxicants have proven to be strong bad impact on human health and attribute to many notorious modern diseases such cancer, heart diseases, stroke, etc. At this 21st century, we have to realize that a beef on the plate, or the milk in the cup is not the same as it was 10 or 20 years ago; the toxicant levels are much intense than before. To chase the profitability, the massive live stocks, the cows are inhumanly treated during their life spans. They are crowded in the smelly factory farms, being fed by the cheap artificial methods, force to with the growing hormones and antibiotics to ensure and expedite the production of meat and milk. This meat, this milk, builds up the toxicant levels and poisons our body until the body corrupts, by heart diseases, by cancer, by stroke etc. No matter how strong your body is, it is just a question of time to corrupt your body if we allow these long-term poison gradually build up to its limit. Meat, milk and other animal products, not only harm the health physically, they also bring heavy, depressive and guilty energies to us and this bad energy just make us feel heavy and negative. Happiness level is low, life is uneasy. Casa's official website: http://www.casadeluz.org/.

my spiritual practice where I connect and become whole.

Why Organic? Why Vegan?
Why Organic? Why Vegan?
Top reason: I feel good. I feel energetic. I feel light. That our feeling after meal is the most accurate feedback, esp when comparing with the previous eating habit of heavy meat and dairy product, esp when you are already sick and need good energy to recover. Eating organic vegan food keeps you away from the poor side effects from the inhumane-made meat, from rBGH Growth hormone, from pesticide chemicals and other toxicants, and from the GMOs (genetic modified food). These toxicants have proven to be strong bad impact on human health and attribute to many notorious modern diseases such cancer, heart diseases, stroke, etc. At this 21st century, we have to realize that a beef on the plate, or the milk in the cup is not the same as it was 10 or 20 years ago; the toxicant levels are much intense than before. To chase the profitability, the massive live stocks, the cows are inhumanly treated during their life spans. They are crowded in the smelly factory farms, being fed by the cheap artificial methods, force to with the growing hormones and antibiotics to ensure and expedite the production of meat and milk. This meat, this milk, builds up the toxicant levels and poisons our body until the body corrupts, by heart diseases, by cancer, by stroke etc. No matter how strong your body is, it is just a question of time to corrupt your body if we allow these long-term poison gradually build up to its limit. Meat, milk and other animal products, not only harm the health physically, they also bring heavy, depressive and guilty energies to us and this bad energy just make us feel heavy and negative. Happiness level is low, life is uneasy. Like our body, our planet Earth can also no longer tolerate the excessive man-made toxicants, mainly due to the animal industry. After so many years of livestock operating, meat industry consume too much water, land, and other resources, much more than the organic farming used, created a heavy burden more than the Mother Earth can hardly bear. It seems as if the sky and ocean is infinite to consume and mad-made waste but this is no longer true. The graduate, yet steady increased greenhouse gases and manure waste of meat industry makes it appears hardly noticeable, already shows the deadly impact to the planet. Lot of evidence from UN and scientific research already show that the livestock industry is the No. 1 killer on the climate change and related increased frequency of natural disasters, ocean dead zone, deforestation, and biodiversity loss, more than all the global transportation pollution combined. So eating organic, eating vegan, save our mother earth and our later generations.
