SATTVIK COOKING MODERN AVATARS OF VEDIC FOODS

The oldest yoga institute in
the world now brings you the ultimate Sattvik cookbook that will enhance your
positivity quotient and become an inseparable part of your life. Ancient
Indian texts say that the trigunas—Sattva, Rajas and Tamas—pervade the universe
and the human mind. Food that is Sattva is pure, happy, energizing,
vitalizing and fulfilling; rajas is stimulating, passionate, ambitious and
domineering; and tamas is dull, inactive, heavy and impure. Food influences
the mind directly, but the mind can also influence the kind of food you
desire. Hence, it’s easy for the mind to spiral in a particular direction. Of
the three food spirals, only Sattvik has the power that can propel you to a
state of happiness, contentment and full of positive energy. The recipes
revealed in this book will help you derive the benefits of Sattvik foods
along with them being super tasty. In Sattvik cooking, for example, natural
sweeteners are most important as they stimulate vata, the primary dosha that
controls the other two doshas—pitta and kapha. The recipes will enable
millennials to embrace Sattvik food by infusing them with modern-day cuisines
from India and around the world, while also understanding the science behind
it. Sattvik Cooking uses humble Indian kitchen ingredients to unleash the
mind, body and spiritual powers of ancient Vedic foods. The unique selection
of recipes will not only satisfy the palates of all age groups, but will also
be hugely beneficial for fitness enthusiasts.
