These are the Reasons why eating with hands is a better choice

It is such a regular practice that we mostly never give a thought to it and pick the spoon only when we are in company or are eating out at a party or restaurant. According to Vedas, the practice directly benefits our chakras, and the use of hands for eating also increases the blood circulation.

Eating with hands is a sort of muscle exercise that increases the blood circulation. It intensifies sensual connection with food. If you have ever observed, when you eat Indian food (daal and rice) with hands, you feel an unsaid connection with the food, that lacks with fork and spoon.

As per Ayurvedic texts, as the fingers put the food in the mouth, you unknowingly, curve them to form a yogic mudra, that activates the sensory organs that keep prana in balance. Your food is digested well because when the hand touches the food, the nerves on the fingertips experience it and then send signals to the brain which instructs the body to release digestive juices. Perhaps this is why food tastes better when eaten with hands.

It directly affects our chakras. According to Vedas, our fingertips are related to heart, third eye, solar plexus, throat, sexual and root chakras. And when we eat with hands, the motion and touch activates the charka and benefits us in every possible way.

Logically, when you eat with spoon or fork you can’t analyze how much the food is hot, but when you eat with hands, you can sense it and protect the sensitive tissues of the tongue from burning.
