New Delhi, 16 September (IANS). Ayurveda is not only the science of treatment of diseases, but it also guides the lifestyle to balance and healthy. Small habits of daily life have a profound effect on both body and mind. One of these is a habit, cutting hair and nails from time to time.
According to Ayurveda, when the hair, mustache or nails become long, the body feels extra load. This load directly affects the mental and physical movement. Hair and nail bites make the body feel light, causing energy and concentration to work.
Cleanliness is considered part of ‘ethics’ in Ayurveda. Dust, dirt and sweat are easily accumulated in long nails and uninterrupted hair. This environment promotes the growth of bacteria and fungus, which increases the risk of infection and skin diseases. Regular hair and nail bites stop the deposition of these bacteria and the body remains pure and healthy.
Insensible microorganisms often flourish in the edges of long nails. These bacteria can enter the body while cooking or touching the face.
In Ayurveda, it has been considered the entrance to the disease. Keeping the nail small and clean reduces the chances of infection. Similarly, regular care of mustache not only enhances the beauty of the face, but also maintains hygiene around the lips and nose.
Ayurveda emphasizes the balance of mind and body. Clean and balanced forms give confidence to a person and also makes social life positive. Mustache has been a symbol of valor and respect in Indian culture, but it is equally necessary to take care of them. While the hairless hair or nails have negative effects on the body, it is also considered a sign of unwavering social point of view.
Hair and nail cutting is not just to look beautiful, but it is an essential rule of maintaining the body’s hygiene, health and mental balance. Ayurveda believes that when a person keeps the body clean, both his aura and energy increases. This aura strengthens vitality (Ojas) and forms the basis of longevity.
