Guest guest Posted May 14, 2006 Report Share Posted May 14, 2006 Yeah, but....eating well and doing sadhana is not about steeling yourself agaisnt old age, its about living fully in the moment with tremendous energy and realization! mrityor ma amritam gamaya.. this path will not be possible unless we moderate our body habits, so the body doesn't protest and get in the way. Ive always imagined that a beautiful goddess sits inside each of my bodies joints and organs. when my habits are clean, the goddesses are happy and spread nectar through my body, when my habits are un moderated, i eat too much, get fat: the goddesses feel neglected, they become agitated and grumpy! peace becomes very difficult. If Ma isn't happy, nobody is happy. Ammachi, "parzival35" <parzival2> wrote: > > Why not watch Six Feet Under?

Guest guest Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 This is a tantric technique called "nyasa" - of installing deities in the body with mantras.
