We are what we eat, "- said the ancient. This is an accurate description of what is happening. Each product has its own characteristic energy, literally, its own special character. And accordingly, when we have dominated this or that emotion, we are drawn to food, which corresponds to that emotion.
If we offended, we are drawn to sour. If we are very busy lifestyle, a lot of fuss, then we want to salty. If we happened to grief, there is a strong need for bitter (rye bread, mustard, coffee). If we do not want to solve their problems, then we want a lot of sweets.
Moreover, it is important to understand that this relationship is mutual. That is, it means that the more acidic we are, the more we get touchy. The more salty, the more tension will build up inside of us. And so on.
Another aspect of food is directly connected with the type of energy that it carries. For example, wheat and rice are the energy of goodness. Oats and barley - a mixture of grace and passion .* All other grains and legumes - is a passion or a mixture of passion and nevezhestva.Esli more detailed discussion of these characteristics, we can say that wheat gives calmness and kindness, rice yield, above all, toughness and confidence, oats adds to the character the ability to forgive and poise, peas and beans will be active in the energy mire.Chto As fruits and vegetables, such as our beloved potatoes and all the other vegetables that grow underground, are the energy of passion and ignorance. And, accordingly, that absorb energy from the sun and are sweet, are the energy of goodness (bananas, dates, figs, raspberries, grapes, black currants).
The energy of goodness is easy to determine. It is characterized by a sweet taste. It is they who have wheat, rice, called fruit, good butter, cow's milk. Cow's milk, I will mention it specifically, generally, an amazing product, but really its properties are very few people know. The Vedas say that there are two products that develop subtle brain tissue - a human, milk and cow's milk (cow only and no other!). Literally, it means that if we want our child to be reasonable, he should be given cow's milk. Cow's milk - this is the strongest power of goodness to all products! Therefore, Ayurveda recommends that before going to sleep a little hot milk. Just a little thing gives you more peace of mind in life and love.
To be properly understood, we explain next. If the product is in passion and ignorance, it does not mean that it is not necessary. In our own a lot of passion and ignorance, so if we do not receive this energy through food, then we will feel very uncomfortable. The greatest saints, if you read the descriptions of their lives, could live in one cup of milk a day. But this is not our level. We need to have all the products, but only to know at what time. This question, I analyze in detail in the next issue of the newspaper.
In conclusion we give some examples of how a superficial idea about ayurveda, feel the need to completely wrong conclusions.
It is believed that people should eat those foods that grow in its place. Absolutely right! These products contain the necessary for you to set trace elements and vitamins. But this does not apply to products in the goodness! They need to eat everything. This, however, only if you want to gain power of goodness. If not, then you can eat what grows under the feet, or those who live in our area (eg seals, if you live in Chukotka), and stay where you are. This means that the goodness will be inaccessible for you. In this case, you can have good physical health, but this happiness from this not increase, since it occurs on a more subtle level of material energy - only at the level of goodness.
The same applies to milk. Now a lot of theories about that cow milk is bad and not digested adult. Not absorbed in most people. But not because it is harmful, but because modern people of goodness is almost gone. They dwell in ignorance and passion, and because of this they have in the body is not necessary structures that could digest milk.
Thus, you, incidentally, you can check whether you live in the power of goodness, or this is the cleanest energy is unattainable level of material for you and you are fully immersed in the passion and ignorance. The test is simple: if a person does not like milk - goodness, not very much or at all. For this test, all the same law: it seems the energy we attract and the other ("not our") repels.
If you are interested, as psychologists say, in personal growth, then drink the milk, but slowly, prompting your body to develop a fine structure, able to perceive the energy of goodness. The best time to drink milk - before going to bed, drink it hot, make it more digestible, and not very much to the morning there was mucus in her throat.
If you, dear readers, the question arose as to why nothing was said about meat, fish, eggs, he must disappoint you - this Ayurveda, Ayurveda is not the same, which is now adapted by various authors under our desires, but simply an objective science of Ayurveda, about These products do not even think. Because they not only ignorance but also carry more energy killing living beings. Together with them, you eat karma murder. It's the same thing myself to kill a cow, crush the chicken, turn the chicken's neck. There is no difference.
That this is the view of Ayurveda. The world is a certain way, there are certain laws. Suffering arises when we go against these laws. Do not know them, to think that I can in this world to do what I want - this is a manifestation of our pride. If we want to be happy, we need to subdue it and without having in mind the previously prepared answers, ask questions about how to live in this world. If such a sincere question in your heart will be, the real answer will come. Do not think from where. He will come, as they say, would have been a student and teacher there.

Everything in this world consists of material energy, all the objects and phenomena that are associated with this world, are the manifestation of material energy. In this very material energy according to the Vedas, has three different levels of manifestation: Tamas, Rajas and Sattva, or ignorance, passion and goodness.
Ignorance and passion shackle us multiply our suffering. It is said that happiness in tamas (ignorance) - is a complete illusion. Man takes the happiness that really causes him some pain. This happiness is a drug addict, who suffers, not having received the dose, but getting it believes that becomes happy.
Happiness in rajas (passion) really exists, but it is fleeting and disappears immediately after his appearance. This happiness of most people. An example of his simple: we eat that delight our senses, but if we, God forbid overeaten or nedoeli (now it happens more often), they will suffer. But even if we ate as much as necessary to bring the energy of happiness in the rajas to the peak, it is still within a moment she begins to fall and eventually disappear, and we must again make an effort to achieve some satisfaction . Eternal running for pleasure, which only appeared to disappear, running, in which efforts make up 99% of the time, and 1% - of enjoyment. Such is the happiness of the passion.
Happiness in sattva (goodness) is constant and, moreover, it tends not to fade, and reveal themselves even more. This is the most amazing phenomenon - one who knows him knows what I mean. But the trouble is most people is that they can not even imagine the happiness for which every second is not to fight.
This is the most common formula is the material energy. There is no way to describe it in more detail here, the one who is interested can look at the 14, 17 and 18 head of Bhagavad-gita.
