Details. Condition: New. Format: Paperback. ISBN: 9789390918850. Publisher: Rupa Publications India. Overview. Sattvik Cooking: Modern Avatars of Vedic Foods is a fresh, accessible cookbook from Dr Hansaji J. Yogendra, director of The Yoga Institute, the world's oldest organised yoga centre.

Grounded in the Vedic concept of the three gunas, the book reframes ancient food wisdom for busy modern kitchens. It's an ideal pick for yogis, wellness seekers, home cooks and anyone curious about eating for calm, clarity and sustained energy rather than just calories.. About the Book.

This paperback cookbook explores the Vedic idea that all food carries one of three essential qualities, or gunas: Sattva (pure, energising, fulfilling), Rajas (stimulating, passionate) and Tamas (dull, heavy, inert).

Dr Hansaji explains how these qualities shape not just physical health but mood, focus and emotional stability, arguing that only a Sattvik diet reliably supports lasting happiness and contentment.

Rather than treating this as abstract philosophy, the book translates it into everyday practice: recipes built around humble, widely available Indian kitchen staples, updated with modern-day influences from India and around the world so they suit contemporary tastes and schedules.

Natural sweeteners, fresh vegetables, whole grains and mindful preparation methods take centre stage, with an emphasis on keeping meals light, vitalising and genuinely enjoyable rather than restrictive.

Alongside the recipes, the author unpacks the science and tradition behind Sattvik eating, including how the doshas of vata, pitta and kapha relate to food choices, helping readers understand not just what to cook but why it matters.

The result is a cookbook that works equally well as a step-by-step recipe collection and as an introduction to a more mindful, Vedic-inspired approach to nutrition, suitable for total beginners and for those already familiar with Ayurveda or yoga philosophy.. Clear, practical explanation of Sattvik, Rajasic and Tamasic food principles.

Modernised recipes using everyday Indian kitchen ingredients. Guidance on how food influences mood, energy and mental clarity. Approachable for beginners while rooted in authentic Vedic and yogic tradition. Written by a globally recognised yoga authority. A thoughtful gift for wellness-minded family and friends.
