A lot of people come for healing sessions who want to lose weight. They come to me and ask me what they should do. Sometimes there is a problem with the chemical and biological reactions in the body because of a specific medical problem or treatment for example with tablets which help gaining weight, but this case is rather rare. Normally all body functions work properly and it is a problem of not being disciplined, eating too much and missing physical exercise.
Of course I can give you healing and it can give you will power and strength to be disciplined but you have to put in some effort. Many people then say “I am unhappy, I am not satisfied, that is why I eat”. It is a good excuse that I hear often from those who do not have the discipline to eat less. Why can’t you see it the other way around: you are not happy with your body, you are overweight, so you should eat less. If you are unhappy with your weight, why do you keep on eating too much? It is your decision to lose weight.
Our body is the temple of our soul. Our soul, our god lives in it and we need to respect it and take care of it. This also means that you take care what you put into your body and how often. Listen to it and only eat when you are hungry, not because you are bored and not because things like nuts and sweets are standing around. Take care of what you eat, eat healthy food, eat vegetarian. Your stomach is not a garbage box. Fill it with nice things, not with junk food or fast food.
I do not suggest going hungry, this is not at all the sense. Here is a small tip which can help you to lose weight: do not start your day with eating but with warm water. After getting up, drink warm water. You can start with one glass and then increase up to four glasses that you drink in the morning. This will clean your stomach, help your metabolism and your digestive system and it will clean your kidneys. If you want to, you can also put in some lemon, this will burn fat. Additionally you will not be hungry for the next one or two hours. I know everybody can lose weight, it needs the discipline. I have seen people who lost 200 Kilogram of weight. Do not give excuses, if you have the strong wish to do it, you can do it!
As it is full moon today we will have a distance healing meditation again and I am looking forward to connect with my friends all over the world.

Good advice. Nuts are healthy but they are so high in fat. Avocado too.

Losing weight is really easy if you just WANT to. Many people find themselves unable to do what they think they'd like to (ie. losing weight, quit smoking) because they don't realize in the back of their minds they still don't want it enough.

"If you are unhappy with your weight, why do you keep on eating too much? It is your decision to lose weight." A very clear-cut bit of truth. Thanks for sharing Swami Ji

Sharing has a double effect: it decreases sadness and increases happiness!
SourceThe explanation of why healing works is not important. Important is your experience.
SourceGuilt is the result of the wish for perfection. You want to be perfect and this mistake proves that you failed, so you carry it around, defending your mistake, blaming others, hiding so that nobody finds out that you are not perfect. Everybody makes mistakes and nobody is perfect!
SourceIf you embarrass your partner in public, it is a sign of disharmony in relationship.
SourceReligious belief and superstition can hurt the feelings of your friends.
SourceThere is no moment in life in which a light is switched on, like a bulb, and from then on you are an enlightened being that can give enlightenment to others, switching on their inner light bulbs with just a little trick.
SourceDon't hide the changes of your life! Your past is a part of you!
SourceEarning money is an art. Saving money is a bigger art. Spending money is the biggest art. You cannot enjoy money until you spend it. Let this energy move.
SourceIndia does not need entertainment events that cost Billions of Dollars while every minute five poor Indians die of hunger and about half of Indian’s children below five are malnourished.
SourceReligion fools people and then forbids them to ask questions - so that they blindly believe what is written in scriptures and taught by religious preachers.
SourceReligion and spirituality don’t need a Guru. It is the way that you go and what you accept in life, it is nothing to learn, it is just implementing your honesty into life. It is love and you don’t need to learn love. If you are in love and you are honest, you are already spiritual.
SourceLet your children grow up without learning violence in video games. Teach them instead to play with each other, not against each other. Show them that a child of another nation and maybe with another language is just as valuable as they are themselves.
SourcePeople say scriptures cannot be changed. Okay, but then why do you need to follow them?
SourceInsecurity and lack of self-confidence makes people search for a guru.
SourceIf you experience something, don’t be shy to change your opinion, even if it is the opposite of what you thought before. Change if you believe it is necessary to change, otherwise it will cost you your happiness. If you change when it is right to change, you will see that new doors open for a better future.
SourceIf you really and truly love somebody, why are you eager to possess that person? True love is not about owning.
SourceThe main factors for a good relationship are that you are physically close and devoted without any ego. If this devotion is not there, they will be far from each other even if they are physically close, sleeping and living in the same room. Then they cannot understand each other and in these cases relationships sometimes break even after a very long time.
SourceThe push of sexual force onto your mind can even make angry and violent. That is why it is good to let sexual energy flow in body and soul, not in the mind.
SourceBelief and religion is a personal thing. Religious leaders of any religion, be that Hinduism, Islam, Christianity or any other religion, have no right to tell people what to believe.
SourceOfficially, all Indians are virgins when they marry.
