Param Pujya Acharyadev Srimad Vijay Hansratna Surisvarji Maharaja discusses how our bodies adapt to different patterns of eating & sleeping. He explains that the frequency of hunger & the need for sleep are both conditioned by our habits. The more we eat or sleep, the more our body demands it. As such, through mindful practice, one can train their body to require less food and sleep. He also highlights the correlation between sleep and hunger, demonstrating that excess in one area leads to an increase in the other. Through consistent fasting and discipline, the body can adjust to new routines and maintain its functions. In his own experience, Param Pujya Acharyadev has found that with regular practice, the body remains strong & resilient, even during long periods of fasting.
