TO AVOID RISK OF STROKE,  QUIT EATING MEAT

4/5/2020

 
A recent study published in the Journal of Neurology supports the tradtional yogic diet - which is vegetarian ( that means no meat including fish).  Here is what researchers concluded:  "People who eat a diet rich in nuts, vegetables and soy may have a lower risk of stroke than those who eat meat and fish."

Here's another thought:  I often hear from people who want to meditate and do yoga regularly but just can't establish the routine or generate the discipline.  It makes me wonder if their diet (almost always non-vegetarian or semi-vegetarian) is getting in the way.  Without exception serious yogis and meditators have embraced a completely vegetarian diet.

Consider this Vedic insight:
  How can he practice true compassion who eats the flesh of an animal to fatten his own flesh?
