Guest guest Posted July 30, 2003 Report Share Posted July 30, 2003 <<Sentient Vegan Diet means no meat, fish, eggs, dairy, onion, garlic or mushroom.>> I was reading this post about the meditation/dinner and am curious as to why anyone would exclude garlic, onion, and mushroom from their diets. I've never heard of this, unless it's allergies. Just wondering! Thanks. : ) Kristy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 30, 2003 Report Share Posted July 30, 2003 Kristy, Onion, garlic and mushrooms are believed to be stimulating the mind. Its a general practice of people who are practicing spiritual path avoid stimulating foods. Onion can be substituted with ginger and garlic with asafoetida. I am not an expert in this area, but I know its a practice followed in Hinduism.

We've seen this, and the one in Paris, and both are worth the trip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
