The Shastras (scriptures) say that envy, greed, lust, anger are all Vyaadhi Kaaranam (source of diseases). One afflicted with these qualities may consume the most healthy food, but, it will not confer good health; he/she will suffer from various digestive and nervous troubles.  Therefore, one must cut dry the evil tendencies with the sharp sword of Jnaana (spiritual Wisdom).  One must pray to the Lord for His Grace, that will enable him/her to control and conquer the evil qualities.   With God's grace, one can be saved from contact with these evil qualities.
