Ahimsa

Non-violence in every food choice. Ahimsa, or non-violence, is a core principle in Krishna Conscious cooking. It involves choosing ingredients that cause the least amount of pain to other living beings. This is why a Sattvik diet is strictly vegetarian, excluding meat, fish, and eggs. By practicing Ahimsa in the kitchen, we cultivate compassion and purity in our hearts, which is reflected in the food we prepare.
