Non-living objects are simply referred as “Jada”, on the contrary, ”Chetna” means objects with a soul and they have independent functional utility in the cosmos. Tri doshas(Vata,Pitta and Kapha) are derived from Chetna only, the balance between these three gives us energies to perform our duties both physical and mental. We consume these energies regularly, but after some time, we need to replenish the same with the intake of food and breathing. Unless our food(energy) is not in harmony with our body composition or it’s not in rhythm with our specific body type, we have chances of our system revolting and this results in an illness.
It’s proven that our food directly affects our minds and psyche. Unhealthy food or badly prepared food will surely be bad for our creativity and state of well being and happiness. In the Vedic tradition, food is considered sacred. We are taught to respect and value our food. We would have heard about good food vs unhealthy food, or Hitkari and Ahitkari food.
Few examples of Ahitkari(or unhealthy) food are:
As per Ayurvedic food traditions, there are certain foods that are simple, cost effective and they cure several health problems for us.
Generally speaking, don’t buy any food items or drinks that are advertised on TV with attractive commercials are always misleading.
Spend some more time and energy on your health and try to make your own food and snacks. Frozen or fast food should be best avoided, fresh and simple things are best for your health.
As a matter of fact, there should be a movement on a mass scale to educate people on healthy food habits. During Covid 19 pandemic, we have all experienced that the right nutrition and healthy immunity can work wonders for our health. The doctors, physicians, education institutes, and other stakeholders should come together and work towards a healthy individual and healthy society. In Ayurveda, a balanced Agni or digestive fire is a key to good health and we should nurture it by avoiding wrong and irregular nutrition. Our country is blessed with what, millet’s and other healthy grains, we also have enough fruits, vegetables, and greens across and they should be part of our menu regularly.
We should not become victims of fashionable food or industrial food which is being pushed at us by corporations. It is like mental slavery even after so many years of independence.
