PUBLICATION : SOUTH AFRICAN COOKBOOK


My cookbook was based on a Sattvic diet. Food is universally renowned as the jewel of Hindus emotional,physical and mental wellbeing. The Sattic diet is nutritive vegetarian foods like organic nuts, seeds, whole grains and oily fruits and vegetables that help build the brain tissue and develop mental wellbeing.Sattvic foods are foods that are abundant in Prana ( the universal life ) force that gives life to all sentient beings in both plant and animal kingdoms. A Sattvic diet means not only vegetarian food, but food rich in “Prana” life-force like organic fresh fruits and vegetables . It requires avoiding canned and processed food, and foods prepared with chemical fertilizers or sprays. It also means properly prepared fresh foods. Foods prepared with lots of love will add to their Sattvic quality.My cookbook explains how the Sattvic diet can be incorporated with Yoga and Meditation to achieve emotional and physical well being.The target audience is just anyone, who has a keen interest to live a healthy and improved lifestyle.
