Hinduism - way of living - day to day routine

Hinduism is a way of living put together by our great rishis and saints.  It is all ways of life when you look things at a closer view.  I am going to write small posts about day to day living and its benefits.

We have left few things behind thinking that it was applicable only for old generations (our parents and forefathers) and it is not applicable anymore for the fast paced life of Modern generation.   I just wanted to remind all my fellow people that most of them are very much applicable for our current day to day living for a healthy and peaceful life.


Hinduism - simple day to day routine:

            1.    Wake up - Scrub your hands and keep it on your eyes.   Pray - Think about your favorite God/Guru or just wish for a peaceful day and wellness and safety of your family.

            2.    Look at a God picture hanging on the wall.

            3.    Use restroom and wash your legs.

            4.    Brush/Wash your face well, Comb your hair

            5.    Wash and do rangoli outside the door or atleast on the step

            6.    Light diyas (Sesame oil or ghee)

            7.    Offer heated milk with Sugar/Honey to God before you drink

            8.    Take bath and cook

            9.    Listen/Chant divine songs while you cook.   It spreads the positive energy around the                          house and makes your food divine too.

            10.  Offer rice or anything that you have made without onion/garlic to God with love.  Sprinkle a drop of ghee before serving.  


Benefits:

 You follow the  age old tradition.   I know we dont get convinced.   The facts are more psychological. Our mind is more powerful  than any other body part.   We train our mind thru these simple routine to have good spirit.   Physically,  you clean yourself before you cook.  When we want to feel fresh when we eat why not make it with clean body!

Note about myself:   

All of the things that I am discussing with you are practiced by me for the last 5+ years if not before.   Awareness of these things created the difference in me.   I am writing these posts to create awareness and hoping it will help you to lead peaceful life.
