The condition to read Gita is faith in God. Gita also advices on eating habits. ‘Eating, Drinking, Sleeping and behaving should be well moderated.’

Everything should be done just enough. Neither less nor more. Over eating and under eating are both prohibited. Enough of water intake is essential. Eating material must contain required amount of necessary elements like carbohydrates, vitamins, proteins, minerals etc. It is not advisable to eat to the full capacity of stomach. Some space should be left in belly so that the churning and digestion of the food is effective. Food should be simple. It should enhance life expectancy, improve health and make you cheerful in the end. One should not select food by taste but by its usefulness. Stale, rotten, bitter, spicy, chilli food should be avoided. Eating or drinking too hot could damage the digestion system and hence must be avoided.

Over sleeping will make you lazy while under sleeping will make you restless. Usually sleep of six hours is sufficient.

Jerky behavior must be avoided. A matured behavior is expected. One should not react to the situation but a controlled response is essential. Shouting, making scenes are out of question. One must talk as less as possible. No comments should be passed on others. Talk should be soft and sweet. Others should never be insulted by any word. Disparaging, taunting, maligning, blaming others must be stopped. Fault finding is dangerous. Spiritual aspirant must treat everyone with respect but love only God.
