Yes Adiyen.

Adiyens understanding is Swami has said that Swami NamAlwar says “உண்ணும் சோறு, பருகும் நீர், தின்னும் வெற்றிலை எல்லாம் கண்ணன் “.

(Rice/Grains/Dhaanyam we consume, Water we drink, Thaavaram/vegetables/herbs we consume, All are Kannan and for Kannan).

ஸ்ரீகிருஷ்ண பகவான் கீதையில் ஒரு பக்தன் எப்படி இருக்க வேண்டும் என்று சொன்னாரோ அது போல் நமது நம்மாழவார் இருந்து காட்டினார் .

“தாரகம்,  போஷகம்,  போக்கியம்,  சர்வம் வாசுதேவ”.

Namaskaram,
Bhavan in srimad bagavad Geetha has told that anything that is ate without offering to God is eating sin/papam itself. If we have offered everything then if we get cold the bagavan residing within us might have also got it. That can as well be given with love. Our nammperumal takes such medicines regularly from dhanvantri swami and also many Divya desa Perumal accept so, based on bhaktas desire. When there are circumstances like we really don’t feel like offering due to some reason Wil pray to bagavan to make it satvika food, remove all doshams pray for forgiveness n eat.. instead of offering.

Adiyen have this practice, even if I eat Maggi, adiyen offer to my Acharya and eat.
Am sure it’s not sAthvika food as per ahara niyamam but let it be. As long adiyen wish to sacrifice the taste of toungue and practice true vairagyam will keep following this procedure.

Just like adiyen follow EkAdeshi vratham rigorously one by one I wish to leave everything let’s see.

“One day Rishi Vishwamitra was about to starve to death. Swamy went near dog’s back meat (prushta bhAgam) to eat and swamy got alternative better food and finally he did penance for 50000 years for allowing the body to crave for survival.” (Dharmam: Aapath KAla vidhi. Anything is allowed for survival rule) Ref: Hari Vamsam Anantha Padmanabhachariyar Swamy SVBC2 channel 4:30PM IST daily upanyasam.

In one WhatsApp message adiyen read “Kanchi Maha Periyava asked for one more karandi of ThiruKannamudhu (or similar) and did not eat went on vratham for around a week or so till Swami lost desire for that taste of toungue”

Ahara niyamanam for Vaishnava for whom pancha samskaram is over .. as said by our swami n adiyen Acharya combined is as below.. looks comparatively simpler

No onion garlic
Should have home prepared food, and consume within 4 hours of preparation or satvik food prepared by srivaishnava people whom we know, both after neyvedyam done to perumal after bath sitting on ground
No coffee no tea
Milk, ghee, curd, batter etc can b kept in fridge/consumed after more than 4 hours but ‘pathu’ shd be followed to keep its freshness intact

Ekadashi days fruits n milk n water is fine.

Whatever we can’t do due to dire circumstances, sing karavaigal pinn sendru.. ask for kshma and keep that guilt so that we don’t keep repeating (from adiyen, so pls ignore :))

Requesting our Krishnan swami to highlight again on same.

Sri Ramanuja Munaye Namaha,
Sri Velukkudi Krishnan Swami Guruvae Namaha,

Beautiful conversations Bhagavatas about Ahara niyamans.

1)
Ahara niyamanam is for “BODY”. So if followed knowingly that Acharyan and Shastras has said to do it, then BhagavAn gets HAPPY which results in our Satva Guna improvement.

2) PanchaSamskaram/Samasrayanam/Prapatti/Nyasam is for “ATHMA”.
Means “Returning The Stolen Property”.
Reference from Swami’s “KaNNuniN SiruThAmbhu” paasuram 5 “நம்பினேன் பிறர் நன்பொருள் தன்னையும் ”
நம்பினேன்: I believed,
பிறர்: Others (BhagavAn),
பொருள்: any Property,
நன்பொருள்: ‘நன்’ is Chit JeevaAthma Property (பொருள்),
தன்னையும்: its mine (myself).

Means ” I believed others (Bhagavan) property (JeevAthma ) is mine for many janmas by beleving in “ourselves and devatas”, so FINALLY in one janma, we go and return to BhagavAn the stolen property (ourselves) by Acharya Samasrayanam.

**************

So we following Ahara Niyamanan after Pancha Samskaram is for healthy body/Satva guna improvement for “Kainkaryam” rest of this life, but for Moksham “SriVaikunta Praapthi” in this Janma, we don’t need to do anything, since we have returned BhagavAn’s stolen property via Acharya Samasrayanam..

*****************

Many follow Ahara niyamanam ‘without’ Pancha Samskaram, it will only keep their body healthy/Satva guna improve, but NO moksham (SriVaikuntam), since Bhagavan’s stolen property is not returned via Acharya Samasrayanam (Athma Samarpanam). So Another janma will follow like past janmas. No Permanent relief.

Vice versa, After Pancha Samskaram, if Ahara niyamanam is not followed, then our body willnot be healthy and Satva guna willnot improve, so we will be in relentless state rest of the life, but Moksham (SriVaikuntam ) is ‘Gauranteed’, since we have returned the stolen property (Ourselves Athma) to Bhagavan via Acharya Samasrayanam (Ramanuja Sambhandham). So No next janma. Permanent Relief.

This is adiyen’s understanding from Swamis pravachanams and Acharya Krupai.

Sarvam Sri Krishna Kudumbham.

Namaskarams to all.

Thank you to all bhaktas/bhagavathas for answering my doubt. I have a habit of eating neem leaves every morning, so just to clarify, I should put those neem leaves in a plate, put tulasi on it, do naivedyam to Perumal reciting “… vepilai naivedayami …..” etc and offer and then take. Is my understanding correct?

Once again thank you all very much.

Sri Ramanuja Munaye Namaha,
Sri Velukkudi Krishnan Swami Guruvae Namaha,

Narayana Bhagavata,

Adiyen understanding from Swamis pravachanams,

Primarily, For cooked food, add ghee and do neivedhyam in perumal ull (prayer room) after thiruaradhanai. Other items like fruits/neem leaves etc.., use theertham from Udhriniyam and offer to SriKrishna in prayer room. If neem leaves or drinking water in other times, offer to Srkrishna photo in home or in wallet. If consuming it outside , think about SriKrishna maanasikam and eat/drink and say Sarvam SriKrishnarpanam Asthu.

Say Thiruppavai paasuram “Koodarai vellum seer Govinda……” while offering. Follow what Bhaktas Acharyan finally says to do.
