It will be your constant, elevating companion. Virtuous acts, charity, benevolence, nobility, generosity, acts of mercy, and practice of truthfulness, celibacy and non-injury, sharpen the conscience.
Food plays an important role in the development of a pure conscience.
Pure food helps a man to have a clean conscience, whereas animal food makes it impure. It produces a hard crust on the surface of the conscience and blunts it totally. A Clear Conscience and a Guilty Conscience A man of clear conscience is ever pure, joyful and cheerful. A man of guilty conscience is morose and cheerless. A man of pure and clean conscience sleeps happily and wakes up happily.
