Diet
Swamiji
eats simple yet sattwic food. Normally he
eats whatever is offered without making any issue about diet. But then we think that the lady of
the house never get satisfied until she serves the Swamiji with the best
possible food and keeping that in mind we have offered some suggestions here.
There is always some inquiry from kitchen department like - What should she make
for Swamiji? As Swamiji eats meals in different homes everyday, some kind of
uniformity and balance is desirable. Moreover Swamiji is a Yogacharya,
hence regularity in diet is of utmost importance.
