I Ate at an Indian "Diet Centre." What's Is It?!?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 чер 2024
- Is this the healthiest meal in India? I went to an Indian Ahaar Kendra or Diet Centre to see what food is served and find out why it's so healthy. This restaurant is located across the road from Gandhi's final ashram in Sevagram, Maharashtra.
Satvik food is a dietary concept rooted in Ayurveda and Hindu philosophy, emphasizing purity, balance, and simplicity in eating habits. It is a vegetarian cuisine that promotes foods believed to have a calming and harmonizing effect on the body and mind.
Satvik food avoids the consumption of garlic, onions, and certain pungent spices, as they are thought to stimulate desires and disturb mental clarity. Instead, it encourages the intake of fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, seeds, dairy products, and mild spices.
The underlying principle is to cultivate a sense of inner peace, spiritual awareness, and overall well-being through a diet that aligns with a sattvic (pure and balanced) lifestyle, avoiding foods perceived as Rajasic (stimulating) or Tamasic (dulling).

Don't miss this Mumbai couple's healthy 'Satvik' kitchen ua-cam.com/video/xV0gqRu2myU/v-deo.html - it's incredible!
Karl, how about doing an ashram series: a dozen or so ashrams, stay overnight, show all the facilities and the food. I'm sure they would be very popular with your viewers.
@@gsomethingsomething2658 Done ☺ I got to stay at Sabarmati Ashram ua-cam.com/video/Sh3DTmX3_Xo/v-deo.html
Welcome to my city 😊wish i want to meet you
@@KarlRock Seen that. I'd love to see a load more, if you so feel inclined. Ashrams and spiritual life are a great interest to many - Westerners and Indians.
Hey Karl if you arestill in nagpur or nearby pls visit koradi temple, it's must... must.
Someone give him a Aadhaar card 🙏🏻 he reads Hindi better than me.
It is Marathi not hindi
This man has been profiting from ruining the reputation of your country for the past 5 years and you're admiring him lol no wonder 40,000 British troops colonised half a million Indians.
You all smell like chick peas
@xyz-uo6fd it is hindi.
In America, many Indian citizens speak better English than Americans, doesn't make them candidates for citizenship, ofcourse it might help
You switched the names actually. What you called bharta was actually zunka and what you called zunka was actually bharta. It feels so good to see someone covering this particular place, I feel nostalgic. I've grown up in Wardha and this particular place is where I still love to go. It's simple, not expensive and wholesome. Great video 👍🏻
Hey Karl, there is a Jain temple near the Maharashtra border called Muktagiri. It's located in the jungle, and you have to climb some steps to reach it. There are multiple temples at the top, and the food there is Satvik and quite good. I suggest that you consider visiting some Jain temples as well. Just remember not to consume any non-vegetarian food for at least 24 hours before your visit.
Thanks for the tip 🙏
Also chikhaldara Is nearby.
Must visit.
Best season is monsoon, but even in winter you can have a good time.
Muktagiri is a sidhha kchetra and surrounded by beautiful mountains and lush green forest specially during monsoon you can enjoy a waterfall which you cannot forget
I been to sevagram so many times but never went to this place, thanks for sharing us with all next time I gonna def visit as I am big foodie❤
Just be mindful of the lunch/dinner timings at muktagiri
Is this the loser that tracks down streaming sites for free?
It's always a pleasure to watch your videos Karl, i enjoy them a LOT with family and friends, keep vlogging as always ❤️
Thank you 🙏
I recently visited INDIA and i was also sleeping at this Ashram for 2 days. Really enjoyed this place. And the Idlis where perfect there 🤤
He seems very knowledgeable about Hinduism.He mentions "Satvik" food which is bland,( not spicy) light, vegetarian diet as prescribed in the Gita to attain a state of mental,spiritual, physical equillibrium or be positioned in the "Brahman."
Loved this one Karl!! But different to the typical Indian restaurant in the UK. Thank you for bringing it to us.
Good to see you are spending so much time here on simple yet forgotten important sites in India, thats a huge Good Karma you are generating for yourself and I can feel the spiritual vibes as well. You have found a great way of getting connected and in a meaning full way!!! Good luch and God Bless you...
That is a Marathi signboard. It is easy to confuse between Hindi and Marathi as they share the same script.
Devnagri
Hey karl, jhunka is basically a besan (black chek pea flour) and is tempered with some spices and have some veggies in it
hope you like the satvic food
and its always a treat to see your videos❤
Karl your videos have really opened my eyes to india and i would love to visit, this type of food looks great and what a great place to eat it.
It's always a pleasure when you upload a food related video. It's the rich history of the dish, the people behind making them, the way you narrate and experience the food is so satisfying to watch! Thank you Karl!
I watched 2 recipe videos from India today and they both came with such an interesting history and back story, I was not expecting that at all. In America it's just like.. "Yeah, that's food. Eat it" - I love the focus on tradition in India, and how much almost EVERYONE seems to remember and respect the past. (Or atleast, much more than most Americans I know..) - It's really beautiful that history can be so deep in something like a meal.
Sevakram ashram protistan sanchalith ahar kendro. His translation is very good. So protistan means "establishment". Karl Rock is amazing!! He can read hindi so well! He is more indian than Indians! I love his videos! He and his wife are spreading the message of tolerance and acceptance no matter who u are! May God give them both everything they desire! God bless them both! 🙏
Bajra, jowar, nachani or ragi, samaa ka chawal are all millets. Traditionally, very little wheat was grown or consumed in India. It was the British who brought in wheat for bread.
Millets are very nutritious, gluten free, easy to digest super foods. Fortunately, thanks to our PM, we are going back to our roots, recognising the food value in & cooking millets frequently now. We need to learn to make modern dishes & gourmet food with millets too, besides the traditional ways of having them. Millets can also be had in the form of papads & sevs.
another great Vid Karl I'm nearly halfway through all of yours I am watching them all great channel thank you
That looks delicious & so farm fresh! Thank you for sharing with us!
I would love to learn some satvic recipes for dishes i could make here in the states. Great video, thanks Karl.
I remember visiting the Sevagram ashram on my India backpacking trip 10 years ago but didn't see this place. But nonetheless this video brings back nostalgic memories of 'veg thalis' always served on those same metal plates wherever you go it seems! Your Hindi skills are pretty on point too - awesome. Bahut acchha! 🇮🇳 ❤️
@@tech_tacz I can't wait to visit India. Watching the videos of scammer payback and seeing comments has actually given me so much respect for India. We see you guys in the comments standing up for the truth and saying you're sick of it too, you are victims of these scams too. I respect that so much. I have a strong wish to visit India, and to fight these scammers one day soon. Thank you guys for being so welcoming
@@ZeranZeran India is a truly eye-opening, mind-blowing country to visit. Go for it!
@@ZeranZeran Those scammers are operated by powerful lobby who are politicians or connected to Politicians
Wonderful food Karl, makes western fast food look so unhealthy.
Thank you for sharing your amazing experiences.
Those orange water containers are a very interesting technology. Water seep into the pot onto the outside, it evaporates , cooling the water down.
Love this video. Thank you Carls
Hey Karl, if you’re still near this place. There’s a Buddha shanti stupa nearby. Make sure you visit on sunset. Not sure but I heard that stupa was made by people of Japan. You will see Japanese culture at the sunset. I hope it’s still open.
This is a super under-rated location and video, Saatvik food in a local chain is a spectacular experience for us city folks , but you getting to experience and also explain the meaning of it with such clarity to the world is a wonderful thing.
Village food is sooo sooo underated , it is very satiating and something we always look forward to.
the other youtubers mostly video heavy butter chicken naan and roadside stuff but India just understands food.
I really hope this is content that comes from some youtubers and this is an experience i would love many westerners should try go for a non super touristy place and have simple food , its a very different experience!!
Thank you Karl, another great video 👍🏆♥️ The restaurant was lovely, and the surrounding area 👍
Thanks Karl for visting Bapu Ashram in Sevagram Wardha... It reminds me my memories of Wardha when I was living there... You also have to visit Vinoba Bhave's Pavnar Aashram on Nagpur highway as it's gonna give you the same vibes... Thanks & Happy Journey🎉🎉
Thanks for your comment. I was wondering where this was. I will definitely visit these places in my India visit.
Another great video by Karl bhai ❤️
love watching your videos karl, keep doing what you do! :)
First time coming to know about such a place. Thank you sir for covering such places in your video by keeping its authenticity.
So happy to see you vedio mr. Karl rock. Thank you for loving india
Man now im hungry for some traditional Indian food!!!!! Great video brotha👍👍
Para Poli is made from baby chickpeas (chana dal) grounded on a stone platform mixed with jaggery, cardamom and nutmeg powder. The mixer is then stuffed in a wheat flour ball and rolled delicately and then roasted on the iron pan with cow ghee.
Hello Karl! great job in bringing out this aspect of India. Although there is one correction. ‘Aahar’ literally translates to food in marathi. Sevagram is famous for its charitable causes and helping the poor. You might find similar NGO run restaurants in Maharashtra often. They are not diet centres but affordable food centres mainly for people on budget (daily wage workers,students,travellers etc.) The rates are regulated and are at least 50% less than outside. They have nothing to do with ‘diet’ as such. I used to eat regularly in one of these when I was in college. 15 rupees breakfast and 25 rupees for meal. Hope it helps!
Diet just means food though
Karl and everyone kaise ho? Ashram food is great because it follows satvik tradition. That means basically super light on spices, especially hot spices. An ashram doesn't use garlic nor onions in their food preparation and they offer it to Bagwan before distributing it to people. The browner the chapati or roti is, the healthier it is. If it's very white, it ain't healthy. It's all pure vegetarian. Great vlog buddy. Jai Hind!
It's truly amazing what South Asian food can do with vegetables,very creative and delicious
*India
@manoj-uh2dn yes but Sri Lankan quisine is also very impressive 👏
Jhunka Bhakar is very famous food in Maharashtra, it tastes delicious with raw onions.
Amazing video thanks Karl ❤
Im so bi jove... to see you speak and understand written Hindi .... Amazing 🙏. People can learn from you whole buncha things
What type of spices/spice blend, for the bhartha? I 💜🍆 dishes It sounds amazing!
Wish I was there with you trying that food! Your visiting these restaurants are exciting. I'm from Northern California, USA
OMG YOU MAKE ME SO HUNGRY KARL! LOVE THESE FOOD VIDEOS!
So knowledgeable; seems like you are having a good life!
This is awesome and my kindle food! ❤
At our house we have a saying "If the flies won't eat it, we won't either" flies only land on Real Food
Well ive just learned what satvik means, thank you!
Do check out this little satvik kitchen in Mumbai. It's a very cute home-run place, ua-cam.com/video/xV0gqRu2myU/v-deo.html
In satvik food onion and garlic is not used what he ate was healthy village type food but not satvik
I love this Satvik style of cooking. Equally as delicious as classic Indian Biryani and samosa. India is home to such a diverse range of cuisines.
Love your food vlogs. Be it Jammu, Peshawar, Asaam or anywhere in India. Delhi auto wala is best.
Bharta is prepared from roasted eggplant, puran poli is stuffed roti of cooked chickpea + sugar/jaggery stuffing flavoured with cardamom and nutmeg...zhunka is sauted onion+ chickpea flour with turmeric, chillies and salt..
Thank you. Good luck and best wishes.
Good meal and video!
Looks like a great mix of foods to eat.
good video, thank you, i enjoyed it.
I have no idea who Mr. Karl Rock is. However, he comes across a very genuine and honest human being. I REALLY enjoyed this video.
Always amazing how much food you can get for only a few USD there and it seems very good. Here in USA I easily pay $10-12 for crappy fast food quality food. haha. At least near me, we don't have a good selection of food without driving 40 minutes somewhere.
Karl, actually, Centre and Kendra have the same photo-Sanskrit root. C becomes K& T becomes D
Really enjoyed this. The food looks great! Spices are actually good for us though.
Just want to say as a Maharashtrian who has never been to Nagpur this was a wonderful video watch. Unlike most commenting on food, I'm here to talk about something else..
The thing with the flies and other insects is that -- they are a sign that there is still order in that part of the world. They fill important ecological roles and have their place in nature's cycles. Try to eliminate them and you will fill the food, air and soil with harmful toxins, and cause a butterfly effect resulting in chaos that you won't even know about until years later and it will be too late to reverse. I like how you said you just learned to live with them. This is the way!
Good going, keep it up brother.
hey karl, welcome to Vidarbha, hope you are having great time.
Really nice. Hounslow UK has lots of Indian veggie restaurants.
Awesome video again brother take care ❤❤ from Scotland 🏴🏴🏴
Sounds like Fit For Life by The Diamond Couple. Natural Therapy. Don't mix meat and carbs, (infact, forget meat) don't over cook your vegetables, consider the "type of food" you are eating, as how long it takes to empty from your tummy is important, so it doesn't ferment there. Fruit on empty stomach. Heavier meals later in the day.
Love it!
Happy birthday Rocky! ❤
Finally started getting notifications for your uploads😛. Delightful and simple video just like satvik food. Love your food tours 👌🏼
Woohoo! You'd love it bro. Healthiest stuff I've ever eaten. Basically what we eat at home.

Good idea. I'm gonna organise that when my wife comes over next year. We have family on a Maori reservation, so we'll go stay there and do a Hangi.

I love this
hi karl im your fan from india #2nd comment
Great video 🔥🔥, overall what would give the “diet center” food out of 10?
It's a 10, especially because it's healthy. It's definitely a great experience too.
So clear hindi❤
Give this guy his aadhar card.. he is one of us now !!
Food May Look Boring and Not Flavourful or Rich But Definitely Will eave a Mark On Us !!
Nice Vlog Capturing The Places and The Foods Available There Specially Satvik Foods !!
You are trying the most nutritious food the God Almighty have offered us. Have nice trip ahead bro.
Why is that khadi watery? Isnt it supposed to be done with gram flour? Thali looked delicious though 😋
Looks good
Hope you and family in India and Newzealand are fine.
* 7:13 that's "jhunka" and the first one is Bharta
Bhakar is supposed to be eaten with jhunka
Love from Assam Karl ❤
I'll be in india next month! :D
Sir which country you are belongs to
Anyone knows, if Spices GmbH (Indian dishes for 9,90€ Centro Oberhausen) is authentic Indian food? It tastes good.
Hi...karl sir

There are no onions or garlic in satvik food. Asafoetida is used as a replacement for onions and garlic.
Puran poli is very common in Gujarat too.
