Four tips to have a healthy lifestyle

there is something called as viruda

ahara

that means

if you eat one thing and put another

thing which works opposite to that now

the damage is big

if you eat anything which has thomas

inertia will come in your system

cognition level slowly will go down

so subguru

what

in your

view

is the fundamental cause of mental

disorders

uh

if you're asking for one cause

well it could be many see one thing is

the way we eat

it's a very big part of mental illness

the way we're ingesting chemicals and

hormones today unconsciously at various

levels is a serious part of mental

illnesses of this generation

how we ingest how we take food in

this may sound little farfetched for uk

but please listen to me carefully

we

we look at life there like this you are

who you are as a person you are who you

are

because of the parentage that you had

the schools that you went to the

education that you had now the exposure

that you have in your life that's why

you have become this kind of a person

isn't it it's all many many things

receiving so all the times you're

receiving

what you're receiving is not just

information and thought

life receives in so many levels on the

energetic level it receives

so in india we see that anywhere if you

want to receive something first thing is

you cross your legs all right right now

i'm sitting that way it may not be

visible to you

but

first thing is cross your legs because

we don't want to receive from the lower

part of our body we want to receive

anything positive means we want to

receive from the upper part of our body

so if you go to some place where we

think it's energetically strong first

thing is we cross our legs and keep our

hands open because we want to receive

from the dimensions which represent you

know in the yogic physiology it's like

this

there are uh

112 chakras 114 but actually 112 within

the human system

out of this 112 there are seven

categories of them 16 in each one of

them

these seven are generally known in the

world today as chakras

so the first three are survival

processes

and the in between one is

representing a meeting of this

it is from here on from anahata onwards

which is enlightening processes of life

so in that sense it is important you

receive certain things in certain ways

food is considered very basic level of

reception how we receive food what we

receive is very important today what are

we receiving

right now as you see societies get more

and more affluent they start eating

worse and worse food

[Music]

what a rural person in india would not

touch

very sophisticated cities are eating

that kind of food when i say that kind

of food almost anything that

western societies are using today are a

minimum 30 to 60 days old

in yoga their food is classified as

sattva rajas and thomas

thomas means inertia

if you eat anything which has thomas

inertia will come in your system inertia

does not mean you just become lazy

inertia means certain things slow down

certain things means essentially

regeneration of the system slows down

today you know that

neural neuronal regeneration is one of

the most important aspect of

keeping your brain reasonably

functionable functional throughout your

life

if you are consuming foods which are

thomasic or causes inertia in the

general function of your system in the

energetic process of who you are

then you will see cognition level slowly

will go down over a period of time

because everybody understands this this

is why they're drinking cups and cups of

coca-cola or coffee or alcohol or

something else because they know they

need to

balance that so this kind of balance

is a very rudimentary way of balancing

your system that you're putting wrong

things and then you're trying to correct

it with right things the highest number

of antacids in the world nearly 60

percent of the world's antacids are so

sold in america the most affluent

population on the planet this means they

have a whole choice of nourishment they

can eat the best food but no they will

eat the worst food because commercial

forces will decide what you eat you

cannot eat consciously anymore what you

want to eat just i'm saying if

everything becomes fresh food in the

yogurt culture if you cook something the

maximum time in which you can eat it is

one and a half hours 90 minutes before

that you should have eaten the food

after that we won't touch the food

because it is started gathering thomas

inertia will begin to happen if you want

to experiment you can experiment use

something eat something very fresh for

one week eat something which is

processed and kept for one month two

months and then eat it you will see the

level of alertness in the system you

will notice it in your experience but it

is happening at the cellular level it is

happening in terms of we call this ojas

there is no english word for that

if you create sufficient ojas which is a

non-physical dimension of energy if

every cell in your body is wrapped in

this

believe me your aging process is almost

will not progress

your cellular age will almost remain

stagnant for a long period of time

some of the tests they have done on me

and uh you know

they are saying that i am my cellular

age is 25. well i still am like 25 i'm

maintaining the same level of activity

i'm maintaining the same weight same

everything

this is not some miracle every human

being is capable of this with some

simple attention to fundamental things

going further in terms of food there is

something called as viruda

that means if you eat one thing and put

another thing which works opposite to

that then in your system there is a war

you know digestive processes largely

between acids and alkalines and all this

stuff

for example

you eat meat which is fatty

if you ate it by itself

it may not cause that much damage

but you ate that with rice and ghee

you call that biryani and you ate it now

the damage is big because

these two things will not go together

this is why

any any non-vegetarian food and milk and

milk related food were never mixed

because the moment you mix it

it will go opposite to each other and

you create a battle within yourself in

the yogic culture food should rot should

not remain in your stomach bag for more

than two and a half hours

within two and a half hours you should

have moved out you must be feeling empty

stomach hunger will not come empty

stomach will come and that is good we

want our stomach to be always empty

because in an empty stomach everything

works well

and the colon health is something that's

completely neglected today if you do not

keep your colon clean keeping your mind

in a balanced state is very very

difficult

so in ayurveda and see the first thing

if you say anything you are having

sleepless nights you are having

disturbed something mild any kind of

psychological problems first thing is

purging purge the system clean the colon

suddenly you feel little

balanced

[Music]

so in the yoga center

the day starts

with a small

marble-sized ball

of neem and turmeric

[Music]

there are many aspects to this

of what impact it has on your system

one immediate thing it will do is it

will keep your elementary tracked

clean

when we say clean

this is a reason

this whole digestive process is a region

where you have maximum amount of

other life

so within this elementary tract there

are

a whole host of microorganisms

many of them have turned friendly to us

we are living because of them we are

able to digest food because of them

many many functions in the body happen

because of them

but still there are many who are harmful

to us

the uniqueness of

name

especially when it is taken along with

turmeric

if these two things go together

largely those things which are not

necessary for the body

those things can that which can harm the

body

any kind of parasite or life which is

there

all these things get eliminated

it is not a whole solution but

it will bring the basic

necessary atmosphere in the body to make

the corrections either with medicine or

with necessary practices you can bring

about correction

how

do we apply this

to a person who is suffering right now

that needs a compassionate approach not

a standard approach my way or your way

it's a very silly way to go at it that

this is the only way it can be done

because that's not how human beings are

a judicious action of what could be

maximum right rather than wrong more

right than wrong is all you can do i

don't think anybody has an absolute

right about mental

conditions that people are in

[Music]

hey

[Music]

there is something called as viruda

ahara

if you eat one thing and put another
