Diet & Spirituality

 

 

“People can take any food that they like.  If they practice meditation every day for one hour, the meditation itself will let them know what kind of food is good for them.  Let us say that Swamiji tells a person not to eat a particular type of food.  Then whenever he tries to meditate, his mind will start dwelling on that kind of food.  That’s the reason he does not want to specify any kind of food.”

From the printed “Meditation Instructions” that Shivabalayogi gave after initiation into dhyana meditation:

“There are no restrictions concerning diet, cleanliness or the like.”

 

 

This and more can be read in the books on Shivabalayogi, including  Divine Play,  Swamiji's Treasure,  and Tapas Shakti.
