Welcome to Veg Recipes of India….. Cooking with Sensitivity, Love and Consciouness.

I am dassana. Basically a spiritual seeker to whom meditation is a way of life. I am also a computer professional having creative pursuits like cooking, designing, painting.

Since I have been spiritually inclined since my childhood, I have always been drawn to my own inner silences and depths. I have a Master and He is Osho. My Beloved Master emphasizes that any activity should be done with love or awareness, be it cleaning the house, gardening…. just about anything. Whatever one does, he/she should be centered and meditative in his/her actions.

Apart from Osho, I am also being guided and helped on my inward journey by an Enligthened Osho Devotee, Swami Rajneesh. In his official website http://www.oshorajneesh.net, he has shared his journey to buddhahood in his controversial mystical book ” Tears of The Mystic Rose “. Being with Swami Rajneesh has helped me immensely.

Now coming back to this weblog….Cooking is a creative activity for me. According to my master Osho, one can reach to the divine by being total in any creative act. God himself is the creator and creativity is one of the easiest and spontaneous way to reach the divine. If we can loose our ego in any act or being totally absorbed in any act, then understand well… in those rare moments of egolessness or timelessness, you have entered inside the temple of the divine.

I have enjoyed cooking since childhood, but only for people whom I love and care. Cooking is one of the ways, through which I share my love with my loved ones. Cooking with love not only nourishes the body and mind, but it also subtly nourishes the soul of the person who eats the food. In this way by sharing love through cooking, my heart rejoices.

The recipes in this blog are taken from my family… basically from my mom and mom-in-law. Some recipes are adapted from cookbooks, magazines, internet etc. And some recipes are the ones which I have cooked through my own intuition and sensitivity.  I am experimental in my ways of cooking and always go for innovative ideas based upon my intuition.

Basically, I cook and use ingredients on intuition. I never measure any of the ingredients that I use while cooking. I just know how much to use. In this blog, though, I have mentioned the measures of the ingredients for all my recipes.

I hope you enjoy reading and making the recipes, for your loved ones, from this blog as much as I do. When I started this blog, I used to take the pictures from my mobile phone and hence they did not have clarity of the images as taken from a camera. But from the past few months, I have started using the camera to take pictures. I have updated some of my older posts with new pictures and I keep on updating the older mobile photos with the new camera pictures. So the updation of previous posts and pictures is an ongoing process on this blog.

The recipes are good as well as tried and tested and may be sometimes unique as well. If you are looking for something new, than this blog is a place you should visit again.
