🌀பொதுவாக மஹாவிஷ்ணுவை வழிபடும் வைணவர்களை கேட்டால் கூட இந்த கேள்விக்கு பதில் காண முடியாது ஆனால் நம் சைவ நோக்கில் ஆராய்ந்தால் இந்த கேள்விக்கு அறிவியல் பூர்வமான பதில் அளிக்க முடியும் ஏன்?? திருமால் கையில் வைத்திருக்கும் சக்கரத்தின் சுழல் வேகம் "30கிமீ/வினாடி" என்று துல்லயமாக கூறவும்
திருமால் கையில் வைத்திருக்கும் *சக்கரப் படை சிவபெருமான் அளித்தது* என்பது நாடறிந்த உண்மை, *திருவீழி மிழலையும் திருமாற்பேறும்* ஆகிய இரண்டு ஊர்கள் இந்த வரலாற்றை நினைவு கூறும் அற்புதத் தலங்கள்

The lack of sunlight also affects the digestive system. This is a period when the three body types get aggravated. These are Vata, Pitta, Kapha in ayurveda or movement, metabolism, structural functions according to allopathy. 2/5
It is ideal to consume vegetarian food. According to ayurveda, leafy vegetables produce vata, curd and fermented food produces pitta and oil produces kapha hence these food groups should be avoided. Since there is not much sunlight, negative energies are more prevalent 3/5
