RECIPE TO BECOME HAPPY & HEALTHY.

Everyone of us knows the Recipe just need little stirring.

Twelve bullet points:

1. Good Morning: Wake up early in the morning if possible in Brahma Muhurta about 1.5 hour before the Sunrise around 4:30 am. Brahma Muhurta time is Divine & Very refreshing. 

2. Spiritual Thoughts: Start your day with Hearing /Reading /Writing Spiritual thoughts/mantras. 

3. Best Detoxification: Drink 2 big glass of lukewarm water in the morning. Drink enough water throughout the day ( 6-8 glasses ).

4. Healthy Breakfast: Whole grain toast with peanut butter or any other healthy breakfast with ginger water or tea with minimum or no sugar.

5. Work: Try to reach your work place before time and if possible leave on time.

6. Healthy Lunch & Dinner:  Plenty of Fruits & Nuts in Lunch. Vegetables and Salads with Whole grains Dinner before 7:00 pm. (add spices like black pepper, ginger, turmeric, cinnamon, clove, cardamom, No Extra Salt )....and Milk, Yogurt or Buttermilk.

7. Walking: 20-30 minutes walk after lunch and 30-45 minutes after dinner.

8. Entertainment: Entertain your self with good hobbies like singing, playing or listening music, mantra meditation , yoga, exercise, reading etc.....something meaningful.

9. Family time: Spend quality time with the family. Share your good thoughts/life’s experience with them. Whenever get a chance say hello to friends and relatives.

10. Sleeping time: Try to sleep early before 10:00 pm. In general nighttime is tiring and not much productive. Thinking and digesting good thoughts before going to bed. Six-seven hours of sleep before waking up early in the morning again. EARLY to BED & EARLY to RISE MAKES YOU HEALTHY, WEALTHY & WISE.

11. Recreation time: Watching Movies, Music Nights, Plan for vacation or even simply gathering with family and friends.        

12. Association with like minded people and sharing this recipe with others to achieve these goals.

Bg 6.17 — He who is regulated in his habits of eating, sleeping, recreation and work can mitigate all material pains by practicing the yoga system. ( Vedabase.com ).


Try to achieve at least 75-80 percent ( goal should be 100%)  of these. In fast running busy world if we can Spare 1 Hour for our Physical & Spiritual Health then our life is successful.

With above-mentioned routine life, be mentally ready for unexpected challenges 
(work, family, wealth or health issue etc....) and try to resolve it ( if we can) or accept it gracefully and come back to routine life.

******************************
We can follow either Quran, Bible, Gita or any other Philosophy that makes sense to us, purify us , elevate our consciousness and qualify us to understand the God and instill love for God & his creation.

I am inspire to hear & read Vedic Scriptures & other philosophy by regularly listening Sri Pandurang Shashtri Athvale known as Dadaji ( speak on Srimad Bhagavad Gita, Veda based discourses & western philosophy ) and association of Swadhyay Parivar every Sunday in Swadhya Kendra. 

I also hear and read discourses & literature on Vedic thoughts & other philosophy from Srila Prabhupada, his disciples & grand disciples ( HH Bhakti Rasamitra Swami, HH Chaitanya Charandas Prabhu, Sutapa Das, Amarnath Dasa, HH Bhakticharu Swami, Urmila Devi Dasi, HH Sivarama Swami, HH Radhanath Swami, Lal Govind Prabhu ( Gujarati & Hindi) Prahalad Maharaj in Surat (Gujarati) .......and many more from ISKCON......). 

FYI: Good source of Vedic literature: Vedabase.com ( Srimad Bhagavad Gita is the essence & Srimad Bhagavatam (SB) is the nectar of all Vedic scriptures ). Hearing & reading these scriptures daily are purifying to our senses, nourishing & satisfying to our heart ( Soul ) and transcendental to our consciousness. 

Don’t try to understand God by Religion & Depiction ( means image, picture...etc ) but try to understand him by Definition through Scriptures. Transcendental subjects of God & his creation can not be understand by mental speculation. Some times people ask why God is Supreme? It is just like asking why circle is circular? Just by definition circle is circular similarly by definition God is unborn, complete, unlimited, infinite, eternal, the Absolute Truth the source of everything, cause of all causes. God is personal and also impersonal BG 12.1, has form and also formless whichever way we can understand him , accept him is up to us.

I see the God besides above mention qualities as a eternal living person ( not a abstract or some kind of light ) known by name Krishna means who attracts everyone has also MANY other NAMES, form, abode, many incarnation, activities, qualities, associates, full of wisdom, bliss, cause of all causes.

I am posting articles based on Vedic scriptures and expressing my opinion, thoughts, understanding, emotion & love through articles not enforcing on anyone. Writing/sharing the articles is my Devotion to God/Gita/Guru. Of course I use Smartphone/Google search to collect some data. Thanks to Facebook/Social media for providing me the platform.

It is always good idea to share our good thoughts & knowledge with others. Besides my parents, wife, teachers, family & friends GREATFUL to EVERYONE WHO HAVE CONTRIBUTED in MY LIFE.

Hopefully my enthusiasm will continue by Grace of Guru & God ( Krishna , Absolute Truth ).
