Neem and turmeric offer several benefits to the human body when consumed empty stomach in the morning. It is common practice for people who are on the Yogic Path. The neem leaves are one of the most complex leaves that one can find on earth. It has an immense impact on the human system. There are health benefits, energetic aspects and spiritual aspects attached to it.
Here are the health benefits of Neem & Turmeric:
1. Keeps alimentary canal clean from harmful micro-organisms
The digestive system contains many micro-organisms many of which are helpful to digest food but many are harmful to us. Neem when taken with turmeric removes the harmful micro-organism. A clean colon is vital for health—traditional doctors in the Indian system like Ayurveda or Siddha first purge you before treating you further. For physical and psychological health, our colon should be clean that’s what doctors do. Similar is the function of Neem and Turmeric.
2. Makes you conscious of how much food to consume
Keeping the digestive system balanced and efficient is very important. You should know how much to eat to maintain the level of activity in life. If you do not have your senses, every day in the morning if you eat a little bit of neem and turmeric on an empty stomach and drink some lukewarm water, it will bring that sense to you because the body will respond to food in a certain way. It will tell you when it is enough. Every cell in the body will speak because neem and turmeric together create a certain access to the cellular level.
3. Transmits energy evenly across the body
Generating energy in the stomach, where it goes and to what extent is a very important aspect of which people are not conscious. It is very analogous to the distribution of energy in an internal combustion engine – which is called transmission in an automobile – which determines how efficient a vehicle is and how much fuel it consumes to generate the same amount of power. Power in the engine is different from power at the wheels. The cars used in Formula 1 have the minimum power loss between the engine and wheel.
Consuming Neem and Turmeric decides how the energy you generate is distributed efficiently. There are Yogic practices that can facilitate this, but even to assist that, neem and turmeric consumption can facilitate that the transmission of energy is even and once you start noticing this, you can move your energies where you want by choice. ‘Where you want by choice’ means you can intensify the process. For example, if you focus your energy in the throat, it will have a different kind of impact. If you move your energies to your eyes, it will have a different kind of power. Everyone has eyes, but everyone’s vision does not have the same power. Not everyone’s eyes grasp the same things or penetrate the same way.
Similarly, focusing energy on your hands will make your touch at a different level. If you wish this to happen to you, your transmission of energy should be smooth. The combination of Neem and Turmeric consumed on an empty stomach does wonders in this direction.
4. Creates a conducive atmosphere for spiritual sadhana
Neem and turmeric are very important for those who are doing some sadhana. We need to create support systems where body, mind and emotions are not an issue in our life. Then we can deal with the real obstacles. If someone else puts up an obstacle, sometimes we will have to fight. But the obstacles that we have put within ourselves, there is no need to fight with it. Just we can put it down. To bring it down, there are methods and possibilities. Neem and turmeric are one such support.
5. Transform one dimension of energy into another
Neem and turmeric on an empty stomach have the power to transform one dimension of energy within you into another. Nowadays, doctors say that consuming excessive neem can destroy your sperm cells, which is good proof of what our ancient Indian knowledge has been saying.
Neem and turmeric together have the power to break down the sperm cells and make it into another level of energy which is called ‘Ojas'. If you are doing sadhana and your transmission is good and even across the body, when every cell in the body is encapsulated in Ojas, you will be a glowing human being from within and out. You need to create a platform upon which nothing can go wrong. Body and mind are platforms. What kind of dance you do on it is up to you, but having a perfect platform which doesn’t throw you off is important. In this direction, neem and turmeric are very important elements.
6. Cleanses the body and takes away cancerous cells
Cancer is a disease in which certain cells have turned against you. Periodic cleaning of the body is good to prevent this from happening. Swallowing a marble-sized turmeric and neem ball first thing in the morning acts as a great cleanser and takes away the cancerous cells in your body. It won’t be effective once you get cancer.
7. Remedy for cold-related disease and blocked nostrils
Those who suffer from cold-related diseases and find their nostrils blocked every morning will benefit a lot from the consumption of need, pepper, honey and turmeric. Crush about 10 to 12 peppercorns and soak them in a couple of spoons of honey overnight. In the morning you consume this and just chew the pepper along with neem and turmeric.
8. Dilates the cellular structure allowing energy to be absorbed by the cells
Everything that comes from earth has a certain inertia. It is important to be aware of it and keep the inertia levels at a minimum. When you gauge whether your sadhana is working or not by looking at how much you sleep and how alert you are, we are checking how much inertia you generate.
The inertia levels will increase if the body does not allow a certain amount of energy to enter the cellular level. Neem and turmeric as a combination dilate the cellular structure of the body in such a way that it allows energy to enter and fill up every crevice. Neem and turmeric are a physical support towards that, but Sadhana does it too. You can generate enormous energy by means other than sadhana, such as stimulants – like a strong cup of coffee and nicotine – but it will not dilate the cellular structure and allow the energy to enter the system to be stored and released over a long period.
When, instead of being stored, energy finds expression right there, it becomes destructive – not only for the body, but also for the mind, for the activity that you perform, and for the world around you. When we generate energy in the body, it is important that it does not simply burst out but that we can hold it and release it by choice.
The consumption of neem and turmeric with lukewarm water is a wonderful way of cleaning and dilating the cellular structure in such a way that can absorb energy.
