may cost five lacs of rupees and the car of Amitabh Bachchan may be of fifty lacs of rupees but one thing is certain that whether it is you or Amitabh, we all take the same flour in the same way. The stomach is at last filled with food not with the richly diamond or golden sets of
ornaments.
Food is the basic requirement of life. It has been cleared to all of us. Now the basic thing is how to take food so that it might act as vital force in our life. It is said, 'As you take food, so will be the level of your mind likewise you will get the formation of blood, bones, flesh, marrow and semen in your body. It is necessary for food to be balanced for keeping the whole system of body and mind healthy. Much oily, much spicy, much sweets and rich food taken usually or at various functions make our stomach a dustbin. If you are suffering from worry, anxiety, tension, jealousy, anger, revengeful feelings, sleeplessness, constipation etc. better you should improve your dietary system instead of taking rounds to any neurophysician. Take the diet balanced and positive, go for a morning and an evening walk and do not let yourself suffered from constipation. You will enjoy the superb state of positive health.
If a person is getting angry today, it is clear that he has been providing a platform to appear anger. If someone is highly distorted, surely he would have been taking food such rich in oil and spices and tamsik food that keep on increasing the shortcomings of a person. All the spiritual and religious people, if they want to convey any great message to the world, I would say that all the religions should make a beginning of purity of dietary system and abstinence. The purity of diet provides the purity of conduct and purity of thoughts. One who is not able to control over his diet, how will he be able to keep control over his conduct, thought and speech?
