A Sattvic diet is excellent for those individuals who desire to live a quiet, peaceful and meditative life. Sattvic foods comprise the diet of many sages, yogis, and spiritual teachers.
A Sattvic diet consists of easily digested food. Sattvic signifies the etheric qualities and includes foods such as fruits and vegetables, sprouted whole grains, pure fruit juices, nut and seed milk and cheese, legumes, nuts, seeds, sprouted seeds, honey, and herb teas. Sattvic foods are those foods which do not agitate your stomach at all. According to the diet, the best foods are those that are fresh, have a balance of all the six tastes and are consumed in moderate portions.
A Sattvic diet thus leads to true health: a peaceful mind in control of a fit body, with a balanced flow of energy between them. These foods are supposed to produce calmness and nobility among men. Eating fruits and vegetables increases one's magnetism.
From what we understand today about diets we are sure that ancient Essenes and Rishis masters had a very good idea about food in general and their effect on the body and thinking pattern of man. Expression of the soul is dependent on the body, and the body is dependent on food.
