For Todays Quote, we have picked Chapter 16, Verse 7. This verse talks about problem with people having demoniac qualities, and it says, pravitti cha nivitti cha jan na vidur sur na haucha npi chchro na satya tehu vidyate

Those possessing a demoniac nature do not comprehend which actions are proper and which are improper. Hence, they possess neither purity, nor good conduct, nor even truthfulness.

Dharma consists of codes of conduct that are conducive to ones purification and the general welfare of all living beings. Adharma consists of prohibited actions that lead to degradation and cause harm to society. The demoniac nature is devoid of faith in the knowledge and wisdom of the scriptures. Hence, those under its sway are confused about what is right and wrong action.

It is never too late to be what you might have been. George Eliot

For Todays Quote, we have picked Chapter 16, Verse 6. This verse talks about what makes for demoniac qualities, and it says, dvau bhta-sargau loke smin daiva sura eva cha daivo vistaraha prokta sura prtha me hiu

There are two kinds of beings in this worldthose endowed with a divine nature and those possessing a demoniac nature. I have described the divine qualities in detail, O Arjun. Now hear from me about the demoniac nature.

Krishna says, All souls carry their natures with them from past lives. Those who cultivated virtuous qualities and performed meritorious deeds in the past lives are the ones who are born with divine natures, while those who indulged in sin and defiled their minds in previous lives carry the same tendencies into the present one. The divine and demoniac natures are the two extremes of this spectrum, with the demoniac traits dominating in the lower abodes.

Believe in your infinite potential. Your only limitations are those you set upon yourself. Roy T. Bennett

Morning Messages from Bhagavad Gita about Features of Demoniac nature - Times Now

For Todays Quote, we have picked Chapter 16, Verse 5. This verse talks about qualities that bring bondage or freedom, and it says, daiv sampad vimokhya nibandhysur mat m hucha sampada daivm abhijto si pava

The divine qualities lead to liberation, while the demoniac qualities are the cause for a continuing destiny of bondage. Grieve not, O Arjun, as you were born with saintly virtues.

Shree Krishna now explains the consequences of both. He says that the demoniac qualities keep one fettered to the samsara of life and death, while the cultivation of saintly virtues helps one break through the bondage of Maya. To tread the spiritual path successfully and pursue it till the end, a sdhak (aspirant) needs to watch out for many things. If even one of the demoniac qualities, such as arrogance, hypocrisy, etc. remains in the personality, it can become the cause of failure.

The art of life is not controlling what happens to us, but using what happens to us. Gloria Steinem

Morning Messages from Bhagavad Gita about Qualities that bring Bondage or Freedom - Times Now

Its not always clear whats meant when a phrase like clean eating enters the conversation. Is the term just a catchall for someones idea of healthy food? Have the salads youve been making for years been dirty this whole time? Green Chef is a meal kit company that leans into the idea of clean eating, which they define as eating foods that are as close to their natural state as possible, ideally organic with limited processed ingredients. Specifically, that means organic whole fruits and vegetables, lean protein and whole grain options, and good fats [like nuts, seeds, and fish], while limiting added sugar and sodium.

Of the half dozen meal kit delivery services Ive tried, Green Chef offers the widest variety of options for keto (low-carb, high protein), gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan meals. Green Chef also states that all their meals are made using organic produce, cage-free eggs, antibiotic-and-hormone-free chicken, and sustainably sourced seafood.

The focus on high-quality ingredients and food that works for various dietary preferences is nice, but a good meal kit should also make your weekly cooking easier and your meals more enjoyable. To figure out if the food was any good, I cooked three Green Chef meals a week for two weeks for my family of four. Heres my honest Green Chef review.

Companies that advertise themselves as promoting clean eating dont always sell food thats rich and filling. But the recipes I ordered from Green Chef offered surprisingly polished and comforting food, like a creamy risotto with Parmesan broccoli, which was about as good as anything I could have ordered for takeout.

New subscribers to Green Chef will be prompted to choose at least one of eight general dietary preferences: Mediterranean, Gut & Brain Health (which a Green Chef spokesperson said are higher-fiber meals featuring antioxidants and healthy fats that aim to support energy and immunity while helping to improve digestion), Calorie Smart (lower calorie options), Quick & Easy, Plant Based, Protein Packed, Keto, and Gluten Free. Your choices will filter your menu options each week, prioritizing whatever your focus is at the top of the list. You can still pick meals from any of the other categories at any time, and each week has more than 80 different meals to choose from.

What I liked:

Green Chef recipe kits generally used one of a few templates: roasted or sauted proteins with veggie sides, rice and grain bowls, flatbreads, salads, soups, sandwiches, and pastas. Even though, overall, the dishes were simplethink roasted pork loin and green beansGreen Chef adds little creative pops of flavor to each dish. A sriracha and apricot jam pan sauce turned a simple meal of chicken and broccoli into something Id be happy to serve guests. Lemony chicken cutlets were accompanied by fennel-orange spiced roasted vegetables and couscous cooked in chicken stock. Salmon Caesar salad swapped out standard croutons for crunchy baked Parmesan frico. Each week, the menus include a range of global influences and generally it feels like theres plenty of flavor variety to choose from.

What I didnt like:

Green Chef loaded up my weekly menus with frequent appearances by one or two types of produce that happened to be in season. For example, several of the dishes offered in a given week contained broccoli. There isnt an option to mix and match side dishes, so unless youre really craving broccoli, it can feel a bit tedious.

Green Chef prides itself on its status as the first certified organic meal kit service. Almost all of the produce you receive is organic (and noted if not), and you can select organic meats and seafood for a small upcharge. Depending on the recipe, you will need some basic pantry ingredients like cooking oils, butter, sugar, salt, and pepper.

Green Chef Review: A Meal Kit With Organic Ingredients and Big Flavors - Epicurious

A new preschool and daycare focused on serving only organic and whole foods is open in Boise and enrolling new students.

Strive Academy, which is located in Northwest Boise off State Street, has a one-acre outdoor space where students learn about growing plants in the community garden.

Strive Academy is the only high-quality preschool in Boise that serves exclusively whole and organic foods and teaches practical life skills to children while being competitively priced with standard-quality daycares, owner Stephen Pendl said.

In addition, whole organic food is prepared daily in Strive Academys onsite kitchen.

We are dedicated to providing the community with a resource that ensures kids are beyond prepared for kindergarten, ultimately creating a place where parents are proud to send their kids, Pendl said.

Strive Academy also focuses on teaching students life skills.

Strive Academys curriculum blends traditional education basics with life skills development (pouring drinking water, tying shoes, cleaning up after oneself, classroom jobs), as well as emotion recognition, navigating adversity, practicing empathy, and financial literacy, Pendl said.

In addition to being a preschool, Strive Academy is also a daycare for kids ranging from 6 weeks old to 12 years old.

For more information on tuition rates and Strive Academys curriculum, click here.

An open house is being held on Saturday, May 4 from 11 am 2 pm at 8707 W. State Street.
