The body does need sustenance but it is possible to cut down to the barest minimum the intake of food. Yogis over the centuries...

I urge temples in Singapore not to produce too much new stuffs to avoid wasting too much natural resources.And also to give new stuffs for free because religion should not earn money.The old Buddhist sutras are all we need.
