MODERATION
IN FOOD
Taking food in proportion to one's hunger or even a little less is regarded as moderation in food. Let us, from a practical point of view, accept that moderate food is the one which after consumption does not interfere with physical and mental work.
MITAHARA
Jain Education International
Philosophers and saints have unanimously accepted the intimate relation between moderation in food and spiritual life. Modern anatomy has also shown the intimate relation between the nervous system and the stomach.
