New Delhi, September 15 (IANS). The elders of the house often say that do not eat while sitting on the bed! Have you ever wondered why? It is said that if you eat while sitting on the same bed on which you sleep, Goddess Lakshmi gets upset. After a tiring day, people eat while sitting on the bed, but this habit can make you poor. Both financially and physically! It has a scientific basis too.
According to Vastu Shastra, Goddess Lakshmi resides on the bed and if food is eaten on it, it is an insult to Goddess Lakshmi, due to which you may face loss of money and financial difficulties.
It is said that this practice causes negative energy to flow into the house, which can increase the risk of diseases. It is also believed that eating on the bed can lead to debts for the family members and creates an atmosphere of unrest in the house.
Apart from this, eating food in bed is considered harmful from a scientific point of view. It has an adverse effect on both the digestive system and the body. Actually, it is a habit in our subconscious mind that we will do things in a relaxed manner while lying in bed. The body is in a resting state, due to which the digestion process slows down. Due to this, one may have to face problems like gas, stomach ache etc.
Concentration also decreases, due to which food is not digested properly and health problems arise.
In our villages, people still eat sitting on the ground. Vaastu experts also consider this to be correct. According to them, it is always good to eat while sitting on the ground. While eating, facing the north-east direction is considered auspicious. After eating dinner at night, dirty utensils should not be left in the kitchen because doing so makes Goddess Lakshmi angry.
It is also important to clean the place where food was eaten after eating. By adopting these habits, not only religious and cultural beliefs can be followed, but health can also be maintained better.
