Food Control

[Guest guest]

Om Namah Shivaya,

Amma's teachings regarding food:

I post this at the risk of being labelled a glutton

and whatever else! (Sometimes, I think I should get a

handle too, like faintglow

 

But, Im sure it will be useful to a lot of people

here. The following paragraph caught my attention:

 

In the beginning stages sâdhaks should observe such

rules closely. Do not eat too much delicious food. As

far as possible, avoid chilies and oil. Semen will

increase if fat accumulates in the body. If the desire

for tasty food increases, the passions in the body

will increase. Diluted milk and fruit can be taken

moderately. It is better not to take food in the

morning. At night, only a little food should be taken.

Half of the stomach should be for food, a quarter of

the stomach for water, and the remaining portion for

the movement of air. A little sweet can be taken. Salt

should be decreased. It is better not to eat at night.

If you feel hungry, eat some fruit. Sleeping

immediately after eating will create problems.

 

Jai Ma,

Ravi
