Look upon the body as a shrine in which the divine is installed. Dedicate all actions to God

Even though the human body is impermanent, it has to be carefully looked after, because it enshrines the divine Atma. Without a healthy and strong body, you will easily fall a victim to numerous ailments. Each organ has its own beauty, which has to be fostered. A weak and unhealthy body is incapable of any resolute action. Pure, noble, and sublime ideas can emanate only from a strong and healthy body. All religions are agreed on this point. Although the body is impermanent, special care should be taken to maintain it properly because it provides residence for the eternal Atma. The divine spirit illumines the body although the latter is composed of flesh, blood, faeces, urine and other foul smelling and impure things. Atma does not grow with the body, nor does it decay along with the body. The Atma principle is not subject to growth or decay. It is ever pure, precious and immutable.
