Acharya Prashant addresses the apparent contradiction between the teachings of Shri Ramana Maharshi and Shri Nisargadatta Maharaj regarding dietary habits and the body. He explains that Shri Ramana Maharshi's advice to eat pure food and avoid meat is intended for seekers who are still on the spiritual path. For such individuals, purification is a necessary method to reduce obstacles and make the journey lighter. In contrast, Shri Nisargadatta Maharaj spoke from the perspective of a realized being who had achieved complete separation from the body. For a realized person, the body is seen as a conditioned mechanism, and any attempt to interfere with its habits, even for purification, would be a form of identification or entanglement.
