Food also plays an important role

Food also plays an important role.
Should not eat too much fried food.
Drink more water.
First thing in the morning drink half a litre- 500 ml. to 1 litre, upto 11/2 litres of water on an empty stomach.
Either warm or cold. It will keep you healthy, prevent diabetes, kidney problem, improve circulation.
Water has a lot of benefit. You must all drink. Morning bed tea- no good. No bed tea. First thing- water. It can have some lemon & ginger.
After half an hour of water then you can drink your tea.
Secondly, according to Ayurveda, hold your hand like a cup. Don’t ask me there is no upper limit! Your stomach can hold this much. Okay?
Now avoid fried food, deep fried foods- no good. Once a month is okay. Not everyday. See how much fried food you use everyday- no good.
Vegetarian food is best. Today world over people are saying we should turn to vegetarianism. That can keep you very healthy & strong.
Q: Why not to have garlic & onion?
Guruji: Garlic & onion make you little dull. Creates tamogun. For meditators it’s not very good. For gastric problem- garlic, for heart problem- onion. But as a regular diet, take everyday I would not advise. It makes consciousness dull.
This universe is filled with Prana, life energy. If you area good meditator, nothing can make you unhappy. Even if you are unhappy, it immediately gets removed.
Question: On migraine problem.
Guruji: Alternate nostril pranayama will help in migraine. Plenty of water & meditation. So many people have gotten over it.
If your stomach is clear, everything is better. Triphala cleanses your system. 3 tablets with warm water or milk at night for 1-2 months. Your system becomes very clean.
