Pritesh01 0 Report post Posted July 29, 2003 Foods Restricted During Ekadasi: Tomatoes? is this not a fruit they use this in iskcon/swaminarayan temples on ekadashi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Govindaram 1 Report post Posted July 29, 2003 Hare Krishna Pritesh The way I fast is, to drink a lot of water throughout the day (of-course prasadam water with Tulasi-leaf), water can really quench your hunger, and if I really feel hungry I eat some fruit. I find it better to avoid eating other foods as you never know if you might unintentionally break the fast. So loads of water and fruit (banana's yum). I have no idea about tomatoes, and there are a lot of Ekadasi recipes flying around, which seem to contradict each other /images/graemlins/confused.gif Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest guest Report post Posted August 2, 2003 What i do is drink fruit milk shakes, when ever i'm hungry. I once tried not to drink anything except water, but was difficult for me. My body doesnt allow me to do so as i'm prone to acidity and headaches. Since I'm from a Madhav brahmin family, on Dwadashi,we have to eat early in the morning before 7 or 8.But I hardly eat at that time. I usually eat arnd 9 or 10am. I really love to go to Raghavendra swamy Matha on Dwadashi to have food as the food is delicious and served arnd 6 am. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Govindaram 1 Report post Posted September 5, 2003 Hare Krishna I'm not sure why/images/graemlins/confused.gif I don't usually eat carrots or Gajar as they're called, I ate some carrot Pakoras which tasted nice once. Haribol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
