Page:Bhagavad Gita - Annie Besant 4th edition.djvu/240



The foods that augment vitality, energy, vigour, health, joy and cheerfulness, delicious, bland, substantial and agreeable, are dear to the pure.

The passionate desire foods that are bitter, sour, saline, over-hot, pungent, dry and burning and which produce pain, grief and sickness.

That which is stale and flat, putrid and corrupt, leavings also and unclean, is the food dear to the dark.
