MESSAGE FOR CONTEMPLATION 1170
Radhe krishna.
Have a Blessed day,
THE MYSTERIOUS VITAMINSSwami SivanandaVitamins are mysterious substances found in food, whose chemical compositions are as yet unknown, but whose absence or deficiency is well known to be the cause for serious ailments and disorders. They are indispensible for the nutrition of the body. The vitamins are classified differently according to their actions. Vitamin A is the enemy of germs. It keeps the skin healthy and strengthens eye-sight. Deficiency of vitamin A leads to, blindness. Nursing mothers need it more. It is found in milk, butter and curd. Vitamin B belongs to a complex group. It is abundant in marmite and bran. It is essential for health, strength and general well-being. Absence or deficiency of this leads to many ailments. To God it matters little what you do. All He minds is the spirit in which you do it. Trust in God and do the right. This imparts solace to the heart. - Swami Sivanand Pure and simple food will help you in observing Brahmacharya. Do not read novels. Be moderate in diet. Take cold water bath. Avoid pictures. Do not look at women. Whenever you chance to see them, think that they are the manifestation of the Universal Mother.

This clearly shows that vegetarian food is the natural food of man. It is incorrect to think that animal food is an essential part of man's dietary. Vegetable foods are both cheaper, healthier and cleaner than meat. Eminent doctors have proved that meat is the most favourable food for the development of putrefactive germs in the intestinal canal. Meat-eating has a strong influence over the mind and the senses. It is not conducive to spiritual practices. It makes the mind extrovert and sensual. Therefore, it is good to avoid meat. Take a well-balanced diet. Have healthy kidneys, liver and bowels. Milk is a balanced food. It contains all nutritive principles in a well-balanced proportion. It is rich in energy-giving nutrients, minerals and vitamins. Hence, it is of a very high value. Let a glass of milk serve you as a refresher, rather than tea or coffee. Always use fresh milk, i.e., within five hours of milking. Take care to drink only boiled milk. Pure and simple food will help you in observing Brahmacharya. Do not read novels. Be moderate in diet. Take cold water bath. Avoid pictures. Do not look at women. Whenever you chance to see them, think that they are the manifestation of the Universal Mother Swami Chidananda The world is good if you really cooperate with it as a friend with a friend, and do not treat it as an object of your senses.- Swami Krishnananda chant the Maha Mantra Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare BE HAPPY |
