If Sai Baba discouraged fasting, did he advocate for any specific dietary discipline?

While Sai Baba strongly advised against fasting, his teachings also cautioned against overindulgence. As detailed in Chapter 32, his philosophy centered on balance and moderation. The text explicitly states, 'Excessive eating is also not beneficial. Moderate eating is truly comfortable.' This is contrasted with his view that 'Fasting in excess is terrible - it causes continuous discomfort.' Therefore, Baba's recommended discipline was not one of deprivation but of sensible moderation. He believed that both extremes—fasting and gluttony—were detrimental to a person's well-being and spiritual capacity. The ideal state is one where the body is comfortably nourished, providing the stable foundation and peaceful mind necessary for devotion.
