EAT A LITTLE

Eat to live and not live to eat. Let your attention not be turned to accumulating food and enjoying the luxuries of life. If you are a whole-time spiritual student who has given up all work and taken to pure Japa and meditation, you can live on one meal a day. You will be free from diseases and your mind will be calm and serene. When you sit for meditation in the morning at 4am you will merge in Brahman.

From "Daily Sayings" by Swami Sivananda (1987-1963). More Informations on Swami Sivananda: on the Website of Divine Life Society, Photographs of Swami Sivananda, German Pages on Swami Sivananda
