The correct way for Buddhism to break through the valley

Bigu is an ancient regimen, that is, instead of eating whole grains, it absorbs the essence of nature to lose weight and detoxify. There is a saying in the Buddhist Sutra of Repaying Gratitude: "My eyes are connected with my mother's words. If a disciple is ill, how should he be treated? The old woman replied. Only based on fasting. " In China, Pigu originated in the pre-Qin period and was popular in the Tang Dynasty. Now it is sought after by many people in practicing fitness. There are also fasting exercises abroad, all of which are derived from the concept of breaking the valley. However, not everyone can do it without eating or being hungry. It must be done under the guidance of an experienced teacher to avoid backfiring. For this reason, we introduce the enlightenment and related arguments of several masters for your reference when you encounter such problems.

In fact, if you don't eat after noon, plus proper exercise, you don't need to break the grain (high-fingered is the act of breaking the grain actively). Why is the word "Pigu" rarely heard in Buddhism? Because many people don't eat for a long time after noon, plus sitting still and running incense, he doesn't need to "break the valley" at all.

When the stomach is full to a certain extent, there is no need for food (some don't eat for a short time, some don't eat for a long time). ) the vitality of our internal organs is produced through the stomach. As we all know, the food we eat from the mouth is first stored in the stomach, and then transported to the small intestine through grinding of the stomach and digestion of gastric juice. After being absorbed in the small intestine, the nutrients are transported to various organs, and the dregs are excreted. The five internal organs produce vitality by absorbing nutrients, and at the same time have the function of excretion.

People who sit still, or those who are weak-willed and suggestive, are induced by others (for example, the sentence "I am so angry that I can't eat" gives him a psychological hint), so that his physiology is psychologically affected, and he can skip eating and not feel hungry.

Some people are really sure that when they are full of vitality, they don't need foreign food to supplement their nutrition, and the energy stored in their bodies is enough for their health. Just like some animals eat a lot a month or two before hibernation, just to let their bodies accumulate energy. When winter comes, it will be sealed up, so it will not eat, and the energy stored in the body will be taken out for consumption by the body.
