What Is a Sattvic Diet?


In the teachings of traditional yoga, foods are classified into three categories: sattva, rajas, and tamas. These are called gunas and represent the three qualities that are present in everything, including food. 

Sattva. This is the highest guna, representing balance and harmony. This is the ideal state. 

Rajas. This guna represents activity and movement. Too much rajas leads to stress, overstimulation, and overexcitement.   

Tamas. This is the base guna. It's associated with pessimism, weakness, and laziness.

  • Here is where the Sikh temples fail miserably.. although they give free food ( Langar ) it’s not in the mode of goodness ..it’s not Sattvic although Guru Nanak would only eat Sattvic food the Sikhs unfortunately are not aware of this so need to change to a Sattvic Diet
  • All places of worship who offer free food ( Prashdam, Langar ..etc ) must only offer Sattvic food only made with love and offered with love
