AYURVEDA TIPS

6 types of Health -- Spiritual, Mental, Physical, Financial, Social, Friendship Disease manifests after 1. Chaya (sanchaya accumulation), 2. Prakopa (aggravation), 3. Prasara, (spreading- entering into blood) 4. Sthana samsraya (to get some place to manifest itself) and 5. Vyakta avastha (janma janmanthar krte pape they get full disease) A disease is a state when symptoms are completely expressed; before that it has to go through the previous four steps. Weakness or viral fever etc is a prior state of disease; they are not disease. Three doshas in the body (cannot be seen like electricity in wire) are entities. Vata kinetic energy, (nervous system) pitta metabolic energy, (harmonal secretion) kapha potential energy in the body SB 10.63 Krishna to Siva jvara : I am happy with you and I bless you Mind is called Sattva and has only 2 doshas, not 3 Raja and Tamas The state of sattva is natural for the mind and when the mind is in a diseased state, then the trishira becomes disturbed. (eg) even a soft rope can make impression on a rock A Vaishnava should be coolheaded in fighting against lower natures. Vraddhi svadhamnaiva sarvesham vipareetaih viparyayah if accumulation is going on, do opposite of that for eg in the evening if you have a heavy stomach, drop one evening meal. Dont allow Chaya to become Prakopa. In Prakopa it becomes intense and you get strange feelings, not able to work. The moment you feel uneasy, langhanam parama aushadham Withdraw everything - food and other things also. Just chant 64 rounds that day. Do 100% langanam - stop management, preaching It is only due to Raja and Tama it has come to Prakopa. Dont increase it. Raja, Tama -> Prakopa -> increases Raja and Tama This war will continue till the last day of our life.

When it enters into Prasara avastha If Krishna is always in your heart then Raja Tama who are waiting outside cannot get in; but as soon as you forget Krishna, theyll enter inside. If the food that you ate got support of Raja and Tama -> sthana samsraya The best vaishnava is one who has complete control over senses Sometimes by birth one may have weakness or disease. A doctor will at least not allow the disease to arise from one level to above level. Make your eating, behaviour, sleeping etc conducive and sattvic to keep peaceful Ati Snigdhani, teekshnani, cintyanam ati cintanaat On Ekadashi day, eat akela kelaa eat only banana it has iron; will bring out stool. Vyayama ardha shaktena whatever total power or energy you have, use half of your energy for doing exercise jogging. Use only half your energy for doing WORK. Yada tu manasi klaante (tired) tadaa svapati maanavah Sleep is never for the body; it is only for the mind. When you get severe pain at a point and you tell the doctor, here I feel pain, it comes to Vyakta avastha (possibly Cancer). When you come to that stage, immediately calm down your mind and focus on the Lord. Be like sun; no ifs and buts. Work like the sun. Morning motion is v.important. Kapha kaal starts at 10 pm at night. Before that retire to bed. 9:45 pm latest be at bed. Sleep blissfully, peacefully; dont take any tension while retiring to bed. Never wait to be knocked by tiredness. Vaishnava nidra is very deep and he will be fresh in 3 to 4 hours of sleep. Otherwise, if eyeballs are wavering that means he is dreaming. 2 hrs REM (Rotory Eyeball Movement) 4 hrs NREM 2 hrs REM First and last 2 hrs are practically useless. We have to be qualified and peaceful in Mind. First keep sattva. Dont allow sanchaya, prasara, sthana samsraya. Dont expect too much; dont exhaust yourself; dont work too much. 1 time eat yogi, 2 times eat bhogi, finished. 3 times eat Rogi, 4 times eat

Best time to eat is 10:00 am in morning, and second meal at 7:30 pm . From brahma muhurta to 9:30 is kapha kal - dont eat anything in this period. Eating in kapha kal makes one feel heavy stomach.
