As  Swami  Vivekananda    advised :
 ' If  stiff  or  strict  austerity  in  spiritual practice   breaks  down   one's  health  or  strain  mental stability  -one   can  or  should  even   give  up  the   practices   some  times  and evn  eat  fish  or meat  for some  time ' .
 --------------- (  From  letter    of  swami  Vivekananda   to swami  Turiyananda , Sept., 1900 :  Complete  Works   of  Swami Vivekananda :Vol 8  ; page 535; 7 Th. Edition , 1985 ).
