Yogic Nutrition
for Higher Awareness
The secret of radiant health and well-being is proper diet: eating foods that are rich in vitality, concentrating on the vital essence of what you eat. The more you make it a practice to eat consciously, the more the energy in what you eat will fill your being—and the more, as a result, you will want to eat correctly.
The Joy and Enchantment of Indian Vegetarian Cooking
6-8 July 2012 (in Italian or English, with translation)
31 August - 2 September 2012 (in Italian or English, with translation) (A deposit of € 50.00 is required to confirm your reservation.)
The journey: from the mouth-watering street food of Benares to the huge crackling frying pans of Chandni Chawk market in Old Delhi; peeking into the private kitchens of Punjab in North India and of Gujarath on the west Coast; stopping at the Dhabas along the long routes from North to South, and continuing down to the Palace of the gourmet Maharaja of Indore, in Central India.
This extraordinary journey among the magical flavours of real India was lived and loved by Cecilia during her 11 years of traveling and 6 years of living in India serving Yogananda in the Ananda community there.
She traveled widely, meeting people in their homes, from remote villages of the country side to princely palaces. Finally, she married an Indian brahmin devotee, consequently receiving the training of a real Indian mother-in-law, an extraordinary alchemist of spices, colors and sublime flavours, in an enchantment of discoveries and pure joy.
It is with this same joy that we offer a weekend course with Cecilia Sharma, in the kitchen of her house near Ananda, for an experience which will touch new chords of your love, or even only curiosity, for India!
Note: Real Indian cooking implies cooked food, fried food, dairy products, peanuts, cashews, flours with gluten, salt and real sugar, which in this course will not be possible to substitue: sorry about that!
Maximum 8 people.
Supplemental Fee: € 40.00
