The food we consume not only affects our bodies but also influences our minds. The gross aspect influences the gross body and the subtle aspect, the mind.
Gurudev Swami Chinmayananda often reminded us that food is not just what we eat but also what we perceive through our senses.
According to Lord Krishna, food can be classified into three types: Sattvic, Rajasic, and Tamasic since all things in the world have these qualities that emanate from Maya, the power of God.
Those who follow a Sattvic diet prefer foods that promote life, mental clarity, physical strength, good health, happiness, and joy. They also seek foods that are juicy, nourishing, substantial, and suitable for the body.
