Tattva-viveka

Medicine and food

Babhru Das - July 2, 2005 7:27 am

I'm not sure where to put this, so I'll try here. I saw this sign the other day at Abundant Life Natural Foods in downtown Hilo, and it reminded me of Maharaja's discussions of how chanting turns from medicine to food as we reach the stage of ruci:

 

"Let your food be your medicine, and your medicine be your food."

It turns out that this quotation is from Hippocrates. Regardless, I like the way it made me remember Swami's instruction.
