VITAL FACTS ABOUT HEALTH Swami Sivananda Though man boasts himself to be civilized, yet when the question of food comes, he makes many unperceptible or open blunders. As a rule, every country has got its own dietetic routine, adjusted according to its climatic needs. The Indians should not discard their usual meal in the morning, say, between 10 and 11 a.m. A heavy lunch at noon in the tropical climate is not advisable. In the afternoon, instead of coffee or tea, one can have some fruits. The evening meal, taken between 7 and 8 p.m., should be light such as boiled vegetables, fruit, and a cup of milk. One should retire to bed by 10 p.m., and be ready to get up at 4 a.m. For the usual forenoon meal, one could take a little of starches, fats, green vegetables, proteins, milk or curd and fruit. Occasional fasts are more essential than occasional feasts to correct one's errors against natural life, which are often inevitable due to over-eating and eating too much of sweet and spiced foods. An occasional use of enema, or castor oil or any vegetable laxative, is necessary to clean the bowels. What you wish and long for with all your heart, that is yours. If you ask for Me, I am yours. - Swami Sivananda In order to root out these formidable enemies, man should cultivate purity, nobility, charity, love and a spirit of service in his heart. Remember; the Lord has created the world in order to provide a school in which man could learn these virtues and exercise them. Your neighbour has been created by the Lord in order that you might love him, serve him and thus grow in divinity. The Lord Himself walks in the garb of the poor and the sick in order to give you an opportunity to serve Him and thus evolve spiritually. Therefore, serve all. Love all. For thus would you secure a victory over your own lower animal nature.
