Tasty Quote for Ravi's consumption

[Guest guest]

You're right, Ravi, thank you. I too prefer things sweeter, rather

than bitter. Time for us to serve up a better diet than this recent

dish. So as not to leave you unfilled, here's a tasty quote from the

Taittiriya Upanishad:

 

"The body of man, composed of the essence of food, is the physical

sheath of the Self. All beings feed upon food, and, when they die,

food feeds upon them. Beyond all sheaths is the Self. Vain and

useless becomes his life who thinks of Brahman as nonexistent. He

alone who knows Brahman as existent truly lives."

 

I love that line, "food feeds upon them." A good passage to bear in

mind as we eat, no? Pass the mango shake...
