The Sanatana Dharma
In essence, Hinduism's seemingly superstitious customs are deeply rooted in scientific or medical truths, reflecting a profound understanding of the physical and spiritual aspects of life. While Western science often focuses on the observable, Hinduism consistently seeks the transcendental, finding a harmonious balance between the physical and spiritual realms.
Reflection of the Week
The ancient rishis of India understood that there was no dichotomy between nature, God, and humanity, as believed in Semitic religions. They introduced Sanatana Dharma, not merely as a religion but as a way of life, embedded with the truths of nature, essentially scientific truths.
Ayurvedic health tip of the week
If you practice yoga, be sure not to eat or drink anything (including water) for at least half an hour after your practice. Yoga creates circulation and the healthy flow of prana through your body. Enjoy this enlivening flow of prana and let that prana vitalize you without disruption. Only after at least half an hour, should you thereby eat or drink anything, so that your body can receive the full health benefits of your yoga practice.
