Fire and Digestion

Religion says that Fire is a God that eats many thing. Science considers it a form of heat+/light energy.

Burning of different things/ materials produce different forms of heat, light, ash and smell.

From our common days experience, we find that Shisham (Dalbergia sisoo), Mango, Bamboo, Cow dung cake, leaf litter, coal, Petroleum and Bio Gas, etc. to be a good source of fire.

We also burn Dhoop, Agarbatti, Camphor, etc. that produce good pleasing fragrance. While burning of plastic, tyre, flesh, Chili, tobacco, Chemical based mosquito coils, etc. produce unpleasant experience.

There are some religious place and Samadhi of some deceased leaders, martyrs, etc. where fire is lit continuously for all days and years.

Like our burning experience, eating/consumption of different type of foods, produce different moods, thoughts, emotions, actions, disease, etc. in our body. So there are emphasis on different forms of Yoga, exercise, breathing practices (Pranayaam), Singing, chanting God's name, Reading, writing, brain storming, shopping, works of philanthropy, etc. to get better fate, feelings and health.
