【修持轨理 The Meditation Session】饮食知量者-非太减少 An appropriate diet - Not eating too little

【修持轨理 - 未修中间如何行者】-饮食知量者-非太减少

你怎么样衡量自己呢？就这样, 你不妨吃了以后保持一个时间，然后你保持一个时间，如果瘦了那的确是不够，如果说稍微有一点点瘦，那不算，这个是一个正确地衡量的标准。你持午了也许过了十天以后，那时候如果还觉得不对，那个时候是的。刚开始的时候感觉是一定这样，这个是我这个地方特别说明一下。广大的群众那时在大陆上面都是这样啊！他们生活得好好的。

【Meditation Session - What to do in between meditation sessions】An appropriate diet - Not eating too little

How do you figure out how much you require? You can do it like this. You might want to eat the same way for a period of time. Then after you keep that way for a period of time, if you lose weight, then you have not consumed enough. But if you lose a little weight, that does not count. This is an accurate way of measuring. If you have kept the ethical discipline of not eating after noon, then perhaps you should wait for 10 days [and see]. If at that time, it is still not quite right, then this is a true [assessment]. In the beginning, you would definitely feel this way. I just want to particularly explain this a bit. The huge population in China were all like that! They had lived well and fine.
