In today’s podcast, Abbot George Burke talks about how diet affects consciousness, and the importance of a pure diet for the yogi.
Abbot George shares these stories:
- The unusual experiment in diet that Abbot George conducted before teaching a yoga seminar.
- The positive effect that taking up a vegetarian diet had for exam students.
- The negative effect that occurred from using just a small amount of liqueur for stomach troubles.
- How a vegetarian diet is not primarily Ahimsa (harmlessness) for the yogi, but Shaucha (purification).
- Why Abbot George became an avid food label reader.
- What happened to Abbot George’s yogi friends who refused to be strict with their diets.
