Pranam Q1 One who does not have a course discipline, may face problems, not only diabetic; this is apart from karmic conditions; the best course a man can endeavour without expectations are: 1. Consume quantum and qualitative food acceptable periodically after studying one, s constitution; periodically because, starving will shoot up the glucose in blood; neither overeating nor fasting; small quantum periodically. 2 Walking or any exercise for 30 minutes daily; not fast walking etc; ability to do so; also it need not be in the morning or evening; it shall be after 30 minutes of eating or drinking; it can be even 5 or 10 minutes with a gap too. Basic character not too much pondering with the stress; stress can shoot; lack of sleep may cause. Beyond all these remember HIS GRACE and our time.
Q2 Janaka's words to Rama: "इयं सीता ममसुता सहधर्म चारिणी तव। प्रतीच्छ चैनां भद्रं ते पाणिं गृह्णीष्व पाणिना॥ That is the utterance of king Janaka, who escorts his daughter to the marriage pandal, makes her stand before the scion of Raghu, the best of Raghu's namely Rama. “This is my daughter Sita. She will be your partner in life in *discharging righteous responsibilities.* Take her. All good for you. Take her hand in your hand." That is all. Those who discharge the righteous responsibilities are Makhalakshmis and Ramas.
