Isn't pulihaara (Telugu, I'm not sure exactly what you call it in Tamil) which normally contains tamarind a common preparation that is offered to the Lord in most South Indian Vaishnava temples? I'd imagine it must be saattvik if it was good enough to offer to Lord Naaraayana. namo naaraayana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
