Share Long : Also funny punditsir is that both too much water and not enough water cause brain dysfunction... That's like a Zen koan or a double bind. What's really funny is that several informants on FFL don't seem to believe anymore in the power of their own thought, much less the power of the DHMO. That's another Zen koan: if you had free-will, you could influence the whole world with just a thought - you could bend spoons, and levitate, or become invisible - you could cause change at will. We know, if we drop a stone in a pond, the ripples begin to move, and they move over the whole pond, reaching all the extremities. One slight stir in any part of the pond stirs the whole pond, influences the entire field of water, and its surroundings. Similarly, by every thought, word and action, every individual is setting forth influence in his surroundings, and that influence is not restricted to any boundaries. It goes on and on and reaches every level of creation. - MMY 'MMY on Inner Power' Tapping the untapped source of power that lies within' Recorded at Guild Hall Cambridge, England July 11, 1960 http://www.rwilliams.us/archives/inner_power.htm Excerpt from Historic Lectures http://www.rwilliams.us/archives/inner_power.htm

Well noozguru it sort of makes sense that kaphas should drink less water and pittas the most with vatas close behind. Still, I think it's probably better to err on the side of too much rather than not enough. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Bhairitu noozguru@... wrote: Depends on your dosha doesn't it? Your body will tell you unless you have so messed it up it doesn't even know anymore.

I believe she's right. A few weeks ago I got carried away drinking cokes without watching my weight. I then realized that I ballooned by about ten pounds in a matter of weeks. I've been drinking more plain water and cut down my meals for about two weeks now, and have returned to my regular weight. The one day fast I did last Saturday helped too. http://news.yahoo.com/first-lady-wants-people-drink-more-plain-water-100616713--politics.html
[FairfieldLife] Re: Drink More Water
That formula for water is way too extravagant. I basically don't drink water at all. If I were to follow your 'rule' I would be imbibing 70 oz of water per day. I could swim in that amount. These people who walk around with water bottles and who can't seem to make it to the end of their driveways without a canteen astound me. This is a fairly recent phenomenon, all this water drinking. If you aren't thirsty why drink? Surely the body can tell us if it needs moisture. My stomach sure as hell lets me know when it is empty or my bladder when it is full or my skin if there is something pricking it. Drinking so much water has to raise hell with the kidneys.
