Lunar Eclipse: A full lunar eclipse is going to occur on 7 September. There are many religious beliefs associated with this, but this incident is also seen to be associated with health. From the perspective of health, eating and drinking at the time of eclipse is considered inauspicious. Let’s know, the reason behind this.
Chandra Grahan and Food: Lunar eclipse is not just a wonderful event, but also a part of many beliefs related to our life and health. According to ancient traditions, food should be avoided at the time of eclipse, because during that time there is a change in energy and it can affect the body. Even in modern times, many neutritionists believe that taking light and detox diet on this occasion helps to keep the body clean and energetic.
What is a detox diet?
Detox diet means a food in which toxins (harmful elements) can get out of the body and get relief in the digestive system. It includes most green vegetables, fresh fruits, coconut water, green tea, lemonade and liquid food.
Lunar eclipse and detox diet connection
The eclipse is considered to be the time of energy shift. In Yoga and Ayurveda, it has been said that during the eclipse, the metabolic activity of the body slows down a bit. In such a situation, if we eat heavy and oily food, there may be extra pressure on the stomach. Detox diet not only keeps digestion lighter but also balances metabolism.
What does spiritual guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar say
Eminent spiritual gurus Sri Sri Ravi Shankar and Sadhguru also explain why food is forbidden during lunar eclipse. They say that food and drink should be stopped a few hours before the eclipse. When you eat food, metabolism means digestion. At the same time, when you meditate or meditate, the metabolism of the body slows down. During the lunar eclipse, people get involved in prayer and meditation, if you sit and sit immediately, then the food will not be digested properly. Therefore, those who chant mantras at the time of eclipse, should give up food before eclipse or eat light food.
