Beware of the food we consume, they breed traits of ...

When Sathwa guna dominates,
one is calm and contented.

When Rajo guna dominates,
one is active and impulsive.

When Tamo guna activates our mind,
we become dull, sleepy and lethargic.

How are these traits develop in the individual?

You must know that a very subtle part
of the food becomes the thoughts.
Hence if you consume nourishing food,
fruits, leaves and vegetables and sprouts,
with a little butter milk etc,
you are bound to exhibit calm & contented qualities.

When you are angry and fearsome,
agitated and emotional, they are due to hot,
spicy, masala contented foods.
You may become lethargic and sleepy
when you consume foods cooked
before six or eight hours.

Several use old food items cooked
and kept in Refrigerator.
Some use it even for two to three days.
They dull our intelligence and induce sleep and lazyness.

Hence beware of the food you consume
lest you can never escape from the passions that agitate you.
