First Vegetarian Cooking Course Report



The first vegetarian cooking course took place last Saturday, July 19th, and gave pleasure to the students and guests that came to visit our center. The course started with a philosophical introduction by our dear Giriraj Prabhu, who spoke about the laws of karma, the relation between the action of eating and the environment, how the type of food we eat directly relates to our states of consciousness, and finally etiquette in a conscious kitchen.

Then the chef took the stand and she spoke, not with words, but with pots, pans, and various vegetables, resulting in a sumptuous feast. The students learned how easy it could be to cook a more than satisfying full course vegetarian meal.

After the Lord had enjoyed all the finest preparations, everyone enjoyed these now spiritualized food stuffs called prasadam! The recipe used in this cooking class is available on this website, under the Mother Bhakti Recipes link.

Many thanks to all who participated! We hope you will join us next time in learning more from out expert chef!

El Cine Conciente es un taller donde todos pueden sumergirse profundamente en su interior, con la ayuda de proyecciones de video y debates de mensajes importantes como la ecología, el consumismo, la salud, el conocimiento del ser, etc, con el propósito de hacer un "viaje interior en la conciencia". Siguiente, el poster del próximo mes.



The themes of the first series of the Conscious Theatre will be “vegetarianism: a revolution of consciousness.” The first movie we will watch is “Animal Farm,” based on Orwell’s satirical novel about totalitarianism. Then we will watch “Meat is Weak,” a documentary that shows us the myths surrounding meat eating, and the reality that exists behind the walls of today’s slaughterhouses. The third film of this series will be “Chicken Run,” which details the adventures of a chicken in search of freedom. To close, we will watch “Earthlings,” a documentary that will capture our consciousness, point out the profound impact in our life caused by an attitude that, grossly or subtly, almost every human being is manifesting: speciesism.

The movies will be played in our center every Wednesday at 7:30PM. Hoping you will enjoy these movies, we invite you to come and participate in building a community based on the motto “simple living, high thinking.”
