Everything we eat is food for the soul. And for our soul to be clean, virtuous, and true, the food should also be sourced, prepared, and consumed in the same manner.
This journey is towards body and soul purification.
Organic and Saatvik diets promote harmony with Mind-Body and Soul. With the Sattvik diet you remain in harmony with nature. Satvik diet is the best diet for healing the body and spiritual blissfulness.
So what is a Sattvik Diet?
Sattvik is derived from the Sanskrit word "Sattva". Sattva is a concept from Indian Yogic philosophy. It means one that is pure, true, ethical, energetic, clean, strong, wise, and vital.
Thus, a Saatvik diet is meant to include foods that comply to its meaning. The meaning also extends to eating habits; like the habit of eating in moderation (to avoid overeating).
According to Ayurveda, Sattvik foods are important to maintain the balance of a healthy mind and body. And to maintain this balance, Ayurveda states to eat according to one's dosha.
These doshas correspond to our physical and personality traits. Our bodies are made up of three doshas: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. We should be eating in accordance to these, so we don't aggravate or imbalance our mind-body.
Many people confuse this diet, as a diet of raw and uncooked food.
In fact, the Sattvik diet is a regimen that emphasizes both raw and cooked seasonal foods such as fruits, dairy products, nuts, seeds, oils, ripe vegetables (except onion and garlic), legumes, and whole grains.
Since this regimen empowers virtues, such as Ahimsa (non-violence), it only includes vegetarian proteins thereby not harming nature and all its living beings.
And unlike another popular notion, Sattvik food is not bland and tasteless. It is meant to include all six flavors - sweet, salt, bitter, sour, pungent, and astringent. Each meal is supposed to cater to all these vital flavors.
We keep in mind when preparing Sattvik food -
-
It is always freshly cooked and simple.
-
Food should be combined to get nutrients from a variety of sources.
-
It encourages foods that are grown harmoniously with nature (seasonal foods), and foods that are ripened and grown naturally.
-
It forbids the consumption of packaged, canned, and processed food in any form.
-
Just enough amount of food is prepared so that there is no food wastage.
-
The food should be chewed properly, eaten at a moderate pace, and not rushed.
-
And last but not the least, food is prepared with love and gratitude before consumption.Food will be prepared and cooked with love and care along with chanting.
