Since Sai Baba was against fasting, did he encourage eating without limits, or did he advise moderation?

πŸ“– Chapter 32

While Sai Baba was strongly against fasting, he did not advocate for gluttony or eating without limits. The text in Chapter 32 presents a balanced and nuanced view. It explicitly states, "Excessive eating is also not beneficial. Moderate eating is truly comfortable." This demonstrates that his guidance was centered on avoiding extremes. He viewed excessive fasting as "terrible" because it causes discomfort, but he also acknowledged that overeating is unhelpful. Therefore, his core advice was to practice moderation, ensuring the body is sufficiently nourished for spiritual practice without indulging in excess.
