to get cure from the disease should protect their feet with utmost care.

=====

My 2cents worth of "thinking"

Our heel has great healing power. If we protect our heel, by walking slowly and softly, first, we will not be "hurting" our Mother Earth, secondly, this will not only save (instead of spending) our energy but also will not hurt our own body. In one of her past postings, our Shri Savithri Puram also had mentioned to walk and talk slowly and softly, thus saving our energy instead of spending them unnecessarily. Sometimes, if not frequently, by touching and squeezing the toes and heel gently with our hands will increase the blood flow that will usher an extended "life" to our feet.

Induji and many others who used to send mails earlier like Krishnadayaji, Dilipji, etc are silent these days. Hope all are fine.

Jai Sree Krishna
