Never drink water in a glass.
The thousands of years old civilization of drinking water in India is not a glass, this glass is foreign. The glass does not belong to India. The glass came from Europe. And in Europe came from Portugal. Ever since these Portuguese entered India, we were trapped in glass. The glass is not ours. And the return is never linear. So Vagbhatt ji says that those utensils which are one-line should be discarded. They are of no use. That's why drinking glass water is not considered good. It is considered good to drink the returned water. In this post, we will discuss glass and lota water and tell the difference between the two.
The simple difference is that you all know that wherever water is kept, the same qualities come in it. Water has no properties of its own. In whom you put it, its qualities come. If mixed with curd, it becomes buttermilk, then it will take the properties of curd. If mixed in milk then the quality of milk.
If water is kept in the pot, then the quality of the pot will come. Now if the goal is returned, it will imbibe its qualities. And if you understand a little math, then the surface tension of every round object is less. Because the surface area is less then the surface tension will be less. So the surface tension is less, then the surface tension of everything will be less. And from the point of view of health only things with low surface tension are beneficial for you. If you drink things with high surface tension then it will cause a lot of trouble. Because there comes extra pressure which hurts the body.
Difference between glass and pot of water:
There is a world of difference between glass water and returned water. Similarly, the water of the well, the well is round so it is the best. You must have seen some time back that all the sages and saints drink water from wells only. If we don't get it, we bear the thirst, we will drink it wherever we get it. They drink water from the well because the well is round. And its surface area is less. Surface tension is low. And the saints who keep with them like a kettle to drink water, that too has the same shape as a pot. Which is shown in the picture below.
Due to the reduction of surface tension, one quality of water remains alive for a long time. The biggest quality of water is cleanliness. Now he tells you how that quality works. You have a large intestine and a small intestine, you know it has a membrane and waste gets trapped in that. It has to be brought out for cleaning the stomach. This is possible only when you are drinking water with low surface tension. If there is water with high surface tension, then this waste will not come out, it remains trapped in the membrane itself.
Understand in another way, you do an experiment. Take some milk and apply it on the face, after 5 minutes wipe it with cotton. So that cotton will turn black. The waste and dirt inside the skin will come out. Brought it out milk. Now you will ask how the milk was brought out, then tell you that the surface tension of milk is less than all other things. So as soon as milk was applied on the face, the milk reduced the surface tension of the face because when one object is brought in contact with another object, it takes the properties of the other object.
In this experiment, milk reduced the surface tension of the skin and the skin opened slightly. And when the skin opened, the garbage inside came out. The water of lotus does the same action in the stomach. When you put water in the stomach, the surface tension of the large intestine and small intestine decreased and it opened and when it opened, all the waste came out of it. Due to which your intestine became completely clean. Now, on the contrary, if you drink water from a glass of high surface tension, then the intestines will shrink because the tension will increase. When the tension increases, the thing contracts and when the tension decreases, the thing opens. Now if tension increases, all the waste will get accumulated inside and that same waste will cause hundreds of stomach diseases like fistula, piles, mulvayad.
That's why only water with low surface tension should be drunk. That's why it is considered best to drink the water of the returned, if it is the water of Gol Kue then it is very good. The water of the round pond, if the puddle is open, then its water is very good. Well water is better than river water. Because there is nothing round in the river, it is only long, water keeps on flowing in it. The water of the river is of high surface tension and the water of the sea is worse than the river, its surface tension is the highest.
If we see in nature, the rain water comes round on the earth. Means all drops are round because its surface tension is very less. So drink water instead of a glass. So bring it home as soon as you return. Stop using glass. Ever since you left the lote, the livelihood of the artisans who make the lote in India has ended. There were fewer pots in every village, they used to make pots of brass and bronze. Everyone died of hunger because of this glass. So listen to Vagbhatt ji and bring him back.
