?

 

Like every substance tamasic and sattvic food have their own

properties and they create the tamasic and sattvic effects in the

body accordingly. This is discussed in a number of works(like

patanjali yoga sutras which gives reasons as to why of it etc) and

experienced by a lot a sadhakas.

 

The poison example is there to show that substances will have their

own effects on the human body and not to discuss wat kinda poisons

do what to the body.

 

Read childofdevi's posts *again* and patanjali yoga sutras(where it

discusses yama niyama i think)

What exactly is your problem?

 

I am not a vamachari. What I meant is that I have no interest in

practicing vamachara(that doesnt mean i have no interest in learning

their procedures and acharas and other paddhatis). You are no one to

tell me what to speak about and what not to speak about.

 

I am not a Vaishnava either but know to some extent their worship

procedures etc. likewise to an extent about vamachara practices.

 

*Go read* the original texts in sanskrit which talk about vamachara.

If you know of any vamacharis who said they are exempt from smriti

rules they are just misinformed. Prolly they find it inconvenient to

follow them and start teaching to others(because they cant follow)

that they dont need to adhere(usually happens).Or simply they are

half learned and just dont know. It is definitely not possible to

follow everything in the smriti but some of these ppl lack even the

humility to acknowledge that(they cant follow) if not follow them.

And probably also have their some personal habits which are against

smriti rules which is when they start preaching(to keep themselves

happy) that they dont need to adhere to justify their own habits as

part of achara.

 

I am not posting anymore on this.
