For those who don't live in a country where there is ash gourd - use cucumber or zucchini juice instead. It has similar effects on the system. I've been drinking first thing in the morning before my sadhana and it does wonders. You can like this comment, so others can see it too. Joyfully, Geórgios
@@adityar572 I time it in such a way, that I have about an hour+ after I drink the juice. The drink is also pressed as juice; is not a smoothie; therefore easy flow through the body. You can drink juices 1 and a half hours before you start your sadhana; it will be not in the stomach anymore when you start. Hope that helps.
Lalitha Dadi Thank you buy what is ash gourd? Is confusing because ash gourd is a pumpkin, but in the video looks like a melon 🍈 juice. Do you know the scientific name?
@@islamofascismwatch4737 He is bluffing. Vedas contain the essence of yoga. The expression of reality as experienced by many yogis in their own ways is recorded in the Vedas.
“When we hate our enemies, we are giving them power over us: power over our sleep, our appetites, our blood pressure, our health, and our happiness.” ― Dale Carnegie
I started to drink Ashgourd juice a few days ago. What can I say.... it powers you up, you can feel it instantly after you drink it. It is cooling and brings you into a kind of balance. I couldnt imagine that such a significant effect is possible and so clearly noticable. Thank you Sadhguru for your advice!
Since one month, my self and my wife consuming 1 glass of ash guard juice everyday. It helps to leverage the intestine and body. Thank q Sadhguru for recommending such a health drink.
Ash gourd ->Different names : White gourd Winter Melon Wax gourd (denotes one sub-type of ash gourd) Kushmanda, brihatphala, ghrinavasa, gramyakarkati, karkaru (Sanskrit) Petha, pethakaddu (Hindi) Torobot (Manipuri) Kohla (Marathi) Neer poosanikai (Tamil) Kumbalanga (Malayalam) Boodida Gummadikaaya (Telugu) Budekumbalakayi, boodu gumbala (Kannada) Kumra, chalkumra (Bengali) Komora (Assamese) Appearance Immature ash gourd is coated in fine hairs which disappear as the gourd ripens. The exterior color can vary between dark green to a pale gray. Mature gourds are coated in a distinctive white ash. This powdery coating is where the melon derives its other common name, “ash gourd”. The shape of the gourd can also vary between round and oblong. Taste and Use The taste of ash gourd is very mild, like a cucumber. It has virtually no taste of its own, so it is easy to incorporate into all kinds of salads, smoothies, and juices on hot days. On colder days, you can add either honey or black pepper to the melon to reduce the natural cooling qualities in the fruit while retaining its raw energy boost. To retain maximum vital energy, ash gourd should be eaten raw. Eat Good ,Feel good 😊🙏
I started ash gourd juice 2 days ago. I put it in my juicer and get an amazing juice. Even after just 2 days I felt immensely refreshed. Love you Sadhguru. You are sent by God. By the way I start my morning with raw turmeric, then take the ash gourd.
Thanks Guruji. I have seen Ash gourds n. pumpkin hanging in plenty in pooja room in Uncles house. This was for preserving stock for months without decay. But presence of ENERGY while hanging in house a GREAT INFN. Thanks Guruji.
I am constantly striving to enhance my quality of like so thank you so much Sadhguru for this 🙏 It has now been 6 years since I gave up the consumption of every kind of meat and 2 years since I gave up the consumption of onion, garlic and all food prepared outside. The change I feel in my system today is phenomenal. I had to work terribly hard earlier just to calm my nerves and not be driven by my mind and emotions. but today I sit with ease at the driver's seat of my life for the changes in my eating and drinking habits coupled with yogic and meditative practices I learnt from Isha Yoga have blessed my existence with the presence of God itself. Forvever grateful with my whole heart to Sadhguru. Thank you for saving my life Guruji. Thank you so much. 🙏🌸
Can you explain more about your experiences on giving up onion and garlic specifically? I'm interested to know more about it on how it affected your body and mind. Thanks 🙏🌿
RaguRām 🙃 Namaskaram 🙏🏽 For me personally onions weren’t hard to let go , but I loved garlic 😫.. but as you learn & grow you’re eager to face your challenges with more strength , it becomes ( for me ) a mindfulness and within a little less than year time gave up on my garlic and started experimenting with other types of things , you’d be amazed how as the days and months go past you realize that the things you felt you needed aren’t as important as before...😉you got this my friend if ever I can help you just reach out 🙏🏽.
@@Raguram... Sure, but forgive me for this will be a little long as I would like to tell you something more without which you might find it hard to grasp me. So thank you for your patience.🙏🌸 I accidentally stumbled upon Sadhguru 2 years ago. I gave up meat 6 years ago after I adopted my first puppy in 2014. I am a very simple person. Not much in my head, mostly in my heart. My puppy showed me that animals are no different from us. Just another life. Within a week, I couldn't so much as see the sight of cut up flesh on a platter without an aching heart. It came naturally to me to give up meat after that. It was my mother who introduced me to Sadhguru because for some reason by the time I was 22 in 2018 life had driven me insane. With each passing year of my life I kept getting more and more confused about it. To the point where I'd even try guided hypnosis meditations and binaural music just to go deeper within to find answers but hypnosis didn't work on me unfortunately. I was unable to sleep, eat, go out, or even practice basic human hygine. It was like I was rotting inside, screaming and crying silent tears within, calling for someone to just please tell me what life is. Who i am. What all of this even is. Science (both education and therapy) had failed me years ago so now I was looking solely at spiritual sciences. Name any renowed spiritual institute in India and I guarantee you I had visited it and learnt their practices to help me soothe this burning question inside of me. When my parents took me to temples I had nothing to pray for, I just begged the idols with tears in my, eyes to liberate me. I went to mosques, churches, any place I bowed down at, I was asking the for the same. I was barely 20 at that time. Then strange things started happening in my dreams, some form of higher knowledge would come to me, I'd wake up and make medicines out of herbs or build something or draw a geometric pattern I couldn't stop seeing in my minds eye. I didn't understand if I was getting closer to the light or completely losing myself to the dark. Strangely all this while Sadhguru never once crossed paths with me despite being so well renowned. When my mother finally told me about him after she started watching his videos 2 years ago, I completely rejected him. I suddenly had a head the size of Asia, if you may. My ego put several walls between him and me. I didn't trust Gurus anymore at all after all the past ones failed me. But let's just use the popular Buddhist saying here, "when the student is ready, the master appears" and a force like Sadhguru wasn't one a mere being like me could fight. So, when Sadhguru arrived, within a week, a mighty force brought me to my knees. Had never felt such humility and gratitude inside of me ever before. I then knew that my Guru had finally come. I had never watched a single video of his, knew nothing about Isha but I signed up for any course I could find at that time around me. As a result I first learnt Bhuta Shuddhi and Shambhavi Mahamudra in Mumbai and the following summer went to learnt Hatha Yoga in Coimbatore. I was absolutely naive. I simply did whatever he told me to do. I went with no desires and no thoughts at all, to him. Just to receive whatever he would be kind enough to give me. And I think that's why the beauty of the consequences were profound for me because I didn't expect anything to happen so as things began to flower within me, I was absolutely mesmerised each day. My body became light as air. My thoughts became wordless. I began to hear my body. I knew what to feed it, when to feed it, where to keep it and how to keep it. I just knew it. And I just knew so many more things like they were absolutely simple to know. Living each day was like a movie for me. I simply bowed down to him and did what he had asked me to every day and then some new profound realization would dawn on me. First I knew life, then I found out who I am (or rather the fact that I am not) then I knew no separation and overflowed with compassion. I wamted to embrace all, serve all and heal all and I did so to each life I came in touch with for I had never felt such power in me before.What they call Chitta and Kundalini energy which gives you the power to create your reality, I understood by experience without ever aiming to gain any of that knowledge. If anything it made me humble beyond measure for I understood just how small a happening we are and yet how much importance we give to it. It's a short time and I choose to dedicate that to serve. I went to him because I was dying. If he hadn't come, I would have lost this life but only once he came did I truly understand why in this culture we put the Guru before our parents and the Ultimate Supreme. Because he teaches us what everything else is. That's why he comes before anything else. Without him, we can go to the ends of the cosmos to find answers but we will never *know* . He had never been a person to me. He had simply been a force that enveloped me wholy and amidst all this when you ask me what giving up onion and garlic did, I can only tell you this, when I became aware, I simply knew what must be consumed and what must not in order for me to continue to enhance my experience of life. It is not only onion and garlic but now I can also touch/see water and I know if it must be consumed or not, I can hear the voice of a person on the phone and know many things about them that even they might not, when even a stranger hugs me now, I know his story and I know by experience that there is neither a you nor a me yet this life gives us the opportunity to experience a you through me and a me through you and that's why being alive is so beautiful. I hope that helped. If you read the whole thing, I am beyond grateful for your patience and kindness. 🙏🌸
Prepare for it. Isha Kriya Sadhguru Presence Sadhna Upa Yoga These are tools available on Sadguru app and they are powerful if done as per instructions and regularly. I wish that you het initiated into the life transforming Shambhavi mahamudra soon 🙏🙏🙏
I have waited for 4 years to be initiated by sadhguru,i use to cry to meet him,, dont worry this will prepare you for initiation, the more hungry you are the better you will keep up with practice,shambho🙏🙏
I honestly think Sadhguru doesnt want you to be "his" disciple, he wants you to be your own, be able to be your own source of good without needing anyone else. Thats what he does
@@laaismm3107 all human experience comes from within .. I get that.. but there is a longing in me to meet him in person and be initiated... a disciple follows his guru and learns more than just how to be "good"..... 🙏🏼most people just want to be happy but lack the understanding..those are the fundamentals.. but he holds secrets beyond your logical reasoning .. that is what I seek .. above all , "his guidance."
I've started drinking ash gourd juice, and it's wonderful. Btw, cutting it is really hard and time consuming depending on the sharpness of your knife. 😄
Yes this is a staple food in South and North India. Especially Uttar Pradesh, we eat pakka Bhopala (kaddu) sabzi and also consume it as sweet (petha). Our city Agra and Mathura is famous for Petha
In North India especially in Uttar Pradesh it's a staple food. Not just as sabzi but we use it in tur/arhar pulses as well. We put some amount while cooking pulses. It tastes just awesome and thickens the pulses as well.
Sadhguru is a Sami. . He is God .Miracle man . Mystery soul. his eyes sparkle . There is magnetic power and energy in his eyes that attracts others and make them to listen.
In Bengali , it's call "Chal Kumro" and cooked as one of the prime vegetables almost everyday. Atleast I eat it weekly 6 times at minimum. Thanks and great to know that juice has so many benefits, will definitely try on myself and parents!
This channel is an inspiration to me! That is why I started my own channel because of channels like you! One day I will be as big as you I am confident! Thank you for the videos you upload.
It's called kuvalo in konkani. The yummy 'Kashi halwa' from Mangalore/Udupi is made using this vegetable. Kuvalo Curry+dosa is a favorite local combination. As kids, our grandma used to prepare kuvala juice for us. I've seen them grow in our cousin's farms. Our elders always sweared by the nutritive value of this vegetable. But I've hardly consumed it in the last 10 years. Guess it's time to go looking for it.
I thank my parents for keeping my base strong by providing me all these vegetables which are a part of our Assamese culture instead of falling victim to fast food.
FOR Those who constantly strive to better their life... ''YOU MUST ST0P EATING EGGPLANT/ BRINJAL'' If you eat brinjal for 1year daily you ll be far more duller than now... Thankyou sadhguru..🙏 Since 2years i have stopped eating brinjal 😀
@@sachingoyal1576 D0NOT hate any foods Or DONOT Love any foods !! Just nourish body with NEEDED nutrients. ONCE YOU DEVELOP IDENTIFICATION ILL HEALTH iS INEVITABLE !! Because habbits effects energy balance due to deficiency & over accumulations👍
In AGRA there is a sweet dish called "PETHA ". IT IS MADE OF ASH GOURD. ASH GOURD IS DRIED AND GET COATS OF SUGAR SERUM. KNOWN AS AGRA KA PETHA. ALSO OFFERD TO GOD.
mukul pandey No, everyone does not know. You are bless to know, but I am learning about it. Do you know the scientific name for it? Is it a pumpkin or a melon? Much respect, thank you.
I was literally not 48 hrs ago contemplating how my descriptions of my dietary needs and what I look for in food would translate to my more recent yogic studies. Thank you again Sadhguru.
I experimented with ash gourd juice in the morning on an empty stomach !! Pleasantly surprised with its detoxyfying properties Have been suffering from high inflammation and water retention since past 2 years (side effect of allopathic meds) and recently within 3 days of consumption got rid of lots of toxins from my body ,😍 Now I'm motivated furter to continue this, only thing is it gave me some cold on the first day so now I have started addinv a lil warm water to it and black pepper
Sadhguruji your thoughts & words are enlightening, motivating, nourishing & tranquilizing & it generates enthusiasm & creativity. I submit my heart to you which is filled with affection, love, respect & adoration. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
That effect isn't sustainable. You can't take Kratom regularly and at the same dose and maintain that sort of state. In fact if you take it too often (using it daily) eventually you'll just be dependent on it to be normal and getting off it is going to be similar to opiate withdrawals.
In Marathi it is called Kohala ( कोहळा ) it is used in marriage ceremony. A sweet called Kohalepak ( कोहळेपाक ) is also made from this. In Sanskrit it is called Kushmand ( कुष्मांड ).
When I was 1 to 4 or 5 my oldest sister feed me Water 💧 with sugar because we runout of milk 🥛 I was the 9 of 13 brothers and sisters. Now I’m in my 40’s when I meditate every thing I can see in my pass years (why I can see things happening of my years pass?) thanks 🙏🏻
Your memory becomes Sharper when you meditate ...a lot of monks and yogis can remember thier past lives when you give your mind space a lot of stuff starts to come up
