Thoughts on Life and Body: The saying “As is the thought, so is the life” emphasizes that one’s thoughts shape their existence. An individual’s soul constructs its own body as desired while in the womb, which reflects throughout their life. Negative thoughts manifest in various issues later.
Each thought commands the air element in the body, which facilitates blood circulation and bodily functions. By changing dietary habits, one can manage diseases, but altering the qualities of thoughts is crucial for overall health. The concept of achieving twelve qualities through twelve vegetables is fundamental to vegetable therapy.
Puthalangai’s Benefits: Puthalangai plays a vital role in controlling the air element within the body, which governs many bodily functions. If thoughts are uncontrolled, it leads to various ailments, such as ear noises, mouth ulcers, and digestive issues. Eating the vegetable in its natural form or in specific preparations can provide significant health benefits.
