Besides discouraging fasting, what was Sai Baba's general advice on eating and diet for a spiritual person?

๐Ÿ“– Chapter 32

Sai Baba's advice on eating was centered on moderation and balance. He taught that while one should not fast, one should also avoid overindulgence. Chapter 32 clearly states that "Excessive eating is also not beneficial." His recommended path was "Moderate eating is truly comfortable." He believed the body needed sufficient nourishment for the senses to function properly and engage in devotion, but that excess was also a hindrance. His core message was to avoid extremes. He himself never fasted and wouldn't let others fast, believing a peaceful and nourished body was the foundation for a peaceful mind capable of realizing God.
