What is the Best Diet for the Human Body? | Science of Healthy Eating by Swami Mukundananda

[@srikala5770]

What we are eating, that is what our body is made of. Our mind is also made of that. If we eat too much chilli, it is natural to get angry. There is a link to what food we eat. It is important to understand the importance of healthy eating. Food can be classified in three modes, satva guna(goodnes), rajo guna( passion) and tamo guna(ignorance). The satvic food are natural foods created by God for humans - grains, lentils, dals, pulses, beans, fruits and vegetables, dairy products. Satvic food makes our mind satvic. Over cooked food, food with too much of salt, chilli, sour, sugar are mode of passion. These will enhance worldly aspirations. The tamasic food are putrified, stale, addictive and meat products. Tamasic food will increase violence, anger, laziness, sleep; increase darkness of soul. God has designed our body for vegetarianism. We have molar teeth, long intestine and not good for meat products. Even if we kill vegetables, we are committing sin because plants also have life. Those who offer food to God and partake of the remnants, are released from sin. Those who eat in enjoying consciousness are eating sin. We should think that to use this body in service of God, we need to maintain this body and reach him. First offer to God and have his prasad. Please like, comment and share this wonderful video.

[@kamnakumar7648]

Also include how meat eating causes more disease -Because these food stays inside our body (small intestine ) for longer time compared to carnivores becoz of its longer size than that of carnivores so it get putrifies i.e. decayed resulting into disease

[@mallikasunil2000]

OMG DID YOU SIT AND WRITE THIS

[@roshan_kakashi]

Please don't connect Hinduism with vegetarianism, U cannot ignore rigveda in which there is a lot animal sacrifice (with rituals) including that of cows and buffaloes, neither it is written explicitly in bhagwat geeta to not to eat nonveg, according to bhagwat geeta tamsic food is : which cause pain , distress and diseases and food cooked more than 3 hours which is tasteless, decomposed and unclean. (There is one thing which is known as preconceived notion and then there is one thing called exact translations of scriptures from which i have made a point). If a guru make his own interpretation of scriptures (what tamsic food is ) inspite of actually interpretation, its wrong, its ur responsibility to know as a human being which food suits you by eating it.That is why God has made man intelligent.(To go on someone's else is as dangerous as following something without perceiving for what is right for urself). Om Shanti.

[@Bigly_Rep25]

But fish is good

[@vrindaneel2172]

We tend to ignore this aspect of healthy eating which is so critical to sustain, regardless of wherever we are at any point in life and whatever may be our pursuits. Healthy eating should be on a very high priority on a daily basis. Thanks so much for this message!

[@awakenotwoke6930]

While I do not line up with your religion, I have been fully plant based for almost 4 years. It completely changed my life. Great video🙏

[@notone4540]

The consequences are coming.

[@p.laharika5664]

1.Thank you for telling us how to keep our health.and Now a lot of people are in the mode of passion. 2 .sometimes I also eat mode of passion only. But when I have to listen your words,goodness is the very healthy so I also try to be sattvik . 3. today I have to learned that if we are made of goodness, we will be healthy and fitness.and , once again thank you for teaching me about goodness, passion, ignorance .It is very use for everyone .thank u soo much swamiji 🙏😇...

[@navneetkaur1394]

i learnt a lot through this lecture. and yes i have been eating sattvic food from past 1 month. i really don't get angry and frustated now. It really works.

[@a.shakila7171]

What is sattvic diet how to follow From where you get guidance

[@daivashakti]

@@a.shakila7171 Sattvik diet is composed with sattvik food. Sattvik food is natural, vegetarian and fresh meals. If you like eggs an fish may be you can take it once for a while, but the vegetables, grains and nuts needs to be fresh. Best option is complete vegetarian diet. You can cook some vegetables with ghī. If you want a good guidence, buy a good Ayurvedic book, like those of Dr. David Frawley or Vasant Lad, or consult a real ayurvedic doctor. You can consult an authorized yoga teacher too. Sattvik diet is the most direct way to peace and happiness, specially if you want to practice spiritual life. Good luck

[@venkatramanan198]

Though a vegetarian by birth, I used to enjoy all rajasic foods (which are supposed to be sattvic, as Swamiji says). I suffered health consequences. Swamiji's eye-opening statement, that all foods we eat have sins attached to them hit me the hardest. When I began offering food to Shree Krishna and partake in the remnants, He ensures I grow in health and sattvic tendencies. Thanks for inculcating this attitude Swamiji 🙏🙏🙏

[@jacksonkaranja5182]

Thanks swamiji, I just learned something new today. Am going to do my best and avoid eating meat.

[@user-kf2ck6bh4j]

From many years before I am practicing to offer God before eating (manytimes not) . but today I got to know the actual purpose of offering . Thank you swamiji for spreading the scientific and logical light of devotion on our path .💐💐🙏

[@learnwithsantosh5157]

After becoming Vegetarian since 2017, I feel change in my life, not only in health but also in mind and other aspects of my life. Thank you Swamiji for sharing your valuable knowledge.

[@nikhmusiccompany5686]

Awesome guru ji. I am from non-veg family. Few years ago, I decided to not to eat animals like chicken,goat etc. But, the members of my family just forced me to eat. They were said that non veg things are good to eat not bad. You are thinking wrong . They actually scolded me for this. But now I decided, I never ever eat these animals and tries that my family will also not eat.

[@chaotic_player4729]

You can decide for your own but don't for your family👍🏾

[@chiranjeevisuratkal2575]

If a man try to avoid non veg it's easy to leave for a family but ladies find difficult they have to struggle hard to do some change in their life.

[@purnachandrabrahma7001]

Wow!!! What a great methods of eating our regular food. I have never heard it before from anyone.... Shri krishna's statement narrated by Swamiji here thrilled me... I am going to change my food habit as Satwick as well as by offering it to him. Thank you very much Swamiji for telling the secrets of Food and Food habits, the way of 🍴eating.. Ever debt for it.

[@nabarunmajumder7378]

I am eating satvik diet for last 21 days. Amazingly, i am having very less negative thoughts in my mind.even if negative thought comes, I can easily keep it aside and fill my mind with positivity.

[@swethams5037]

What are the foods are sathvik?

[@KannaRao1962]

Thq. Swamijee for explaining such a topic tp change our life and turn to God.

[@tripx3033]

I’m just so glad I’ve been eating healthy for a while and notice this for a 19 yr old in America like he said I low key come from a family who doesn’t know what they eat just eat whatever like snacks, soup, and wings etc and never actually acknowledge the food we ate, my family might be stagnate by my new behavior but I love it.

[@youva_rani]

So beautifully explained SwamiJi. It was surprising to know these facts that you have stated and that the food we eat has so much impact on our feelings and emotions. What we eat matters, we have to remember that we only have to eat so that the body can function. And since God is the creator of us all we should offer him the food that we eat and then eat it.

[@salauddeensyed5295]

People who dislike this video must watch it again with out bias... There is lot of wisdom in this video... Offering the food to the God before eating... Your attitude before you start eating... This is what really matters...

[@soorir2574]

What a great lesson. It oped my eye. Thank you swami ji 🙏

[@letsmakeindiagreat3832]

You are what you consume. Great way to explain by Swami ji!

[@b.priyamahesh7704]

What a beautiful elaborate explanation for a vegetarian diet. How beautifully swamiji has explained the differences and their influence on our body and mind. Similarly the content which we consume everyday through media, books ,internet also influences our mind . Like how good sathvik diet eradicates anger jealousy etc good content consumption also help us to think sathvically. Gives more inner peace and whole world will be free from war and violence. A little drop today and everyday becomes an ocean hence little step towards food and the good things in life helps us to evolve much more

[@vidyavenupawar6364]

I'm vegetarian, but I used to eat in a rajasic mode, satisfying my palate. Swamiji opened eyes, eating for our own happiness is like eating sin. I learnt a lesson today. I will offer my food to God before eating

[@amurthavalliravikumar6646]

Thank you Swamiji. Learnt there is direct link of our body and mind with the food we eat. We should eat Satvic food.

[@SkyBlue6365]

The best lecture l ever heard on the subject of food. No amount of thanks can be enough to fully thank you Great Swamiji. You are a blessing in my life.

[@manoramadas9882]

So intresting lecture. Beautifully explained by Swamiji how our food eating affect our Mind and how to maintain a healthy body eating proper food. Thank you Swamiji.

[@NATHURAM-ki7ys]

[@gopaltrivedi94]

You have to eat to live and not live to eat...well said Swamiji. It's important to eat "Sattvik" food because food has an effect on the body and mind. Thank you Swamiji

[@sarahgreen9245]

Wow - so many aspects to be wary of when it comes to what we eat and how we eat, with what sentiments. And yes- we should not forget that what we eat impacts not just our body, but it also impacts our brain and mind. Thanks so much for this message, got to get better at managing the diet and making sure to eat Sattvic foods.

[@batimelaku5313]

Amazing way of explanation! I had never understood food this way and most of all I had never prayed before I eat. Thank you for sharing this with us. God bless you.

[@manjushreenanda3754]

Beautiful video regarding our diet. Swamiji so nicely explains what types of food we should take and what not and why. How can we get rid of karmic reaction in details. There is a combination of scientific and spiritual knowledge. Thank you Swamiji for this beautiful message.

[@manjushreerath]

The saints and scriptures repeatedly tell us to take simple and sattvic food and to refrain from junk foods to keep our body healthy and our mind calm and composed, that is very much essential for spiritual sadhana. But, in many of their lectures, both Swamiji and Shri Maharajji remarked, "we pay deaf ear to the advice of Guru, but listen to doctor's advice to carry out his order promptly.

[@PoojaReddy-d3i]

Radhe Radhe, Very interesting lecture. Beautifully explained by Swamiji how to maintain a healthy body eating proper food. Food can be classified in three modes Satva Guna(goodness), rajo Guna(passion) and tamo Guna(ignorance). God has designed our body for vegetarianism. What we are eating, that is what our body is made of. Our mind is also made of that. If we eat too much chilli, it is natural to get angry.

[@साई-द7ट]

Yes ,this is true, what we eat it effect on our body and mind. We should eat for live not live for eat food,so choose wisely and be wise .

[@nehasharan8396]

We are what we eat and it affects not only our body but also our mind. In order to be calm and blissful one must eat a satvik diet which is wholesome and balanced. We incur karma not only by eating meat but also by eating vegetarian food. In order to save ourselves from Karma we should offer satvik food to God and only partake the remnants. Radhey Radhey 🙏🙏

I learn soo much from my swamiji thank you sooooo... much youre my onspiration😢😢😢😢

[@angelspawn7734]

Great video, been taking steps towards improving the way I eat and I don't eat as much trash or even meat like I used to. Snacks aka junk food has been a struggle however, but I am starting to replace them with healthier alternatives. I am learning to make many things from scratch to avoid processed food or food with dangerous ingredients. I still eat meat, but mostly turkey, chicken and sometimes fish. Though I'm starting to incorporate more vegetables and good spices in my food. Side note: The Lady at 5:37 writing down notes because she really wants to make changes, and then you have the lady next to her, completely ignoring the lecture and more concerned with what her neighbor is writing (not minding her own business), than what she is supposedly there for. Lol. Just an interesting observation and something I think is prevalent in society, people more concerned about what others are doing than what they are supposed to be doing.

This is really a helpful information Swamiji. I never knew that our food effects our consciousness. I will take care of my diet from now 🙏.

[@santoshsahu3357]

Swamiji explained here nicely about the real connection between food and mind. Our body construction is for vegetarian food. But we are not realizing this. Also sometimes by force of family or freind we used to take non vegetarian food. It is bad for both health and mind. We should change it. Thanks swamiji ❤❤

[@marypoppins123]

It is interesting that all 3 of my children at different points in their life had wanted to become vegetarian, none have fully stuck to it. Now I am in the process of going from meat eater to eating fish, dairy and next on to becoming a vegetarian. I'm weaning myself off dairy etc and through chanting, meditation and walks, swimming in the ocean I'm nearly their. My children are now looking at me and due to some of them having food allergies or low energy levels are slowly coming around to what I am doing and Hinduism and its Teachings. Amazing. Blessings to us all, especially Guru Ji for teaching us.
