ऋषियों का अन्न-ज्ञान

Sacred verses on food from India's eternal texts

अन्नं ब्रह्मेति व्यजानात्।
अन्नाद्धि खल्विमानि भूतानि जायन्ते।

"Know that food is the supreme Brahman. From food alone are all these creatures born, by food do they live, and into food do they return."

तैत्तिरीय उपनिषद् · Taittiriya Upanishad 3.2 · ~800 BCE

आहारः प्राणिनां प्राणः।
तस्माद् विशेषमास्थाय स्वास्थ्यं कर्तुं प्रयत्नवान्।

"Food is life itself for all living beings. Therefore, giving special attention to diet is the foundation of all health and wellbeing."

चरक संहिता · Charaka Samhita, Sutrasthana 5.3 · ~300 BCE

आयुः सत्त्वबलारोग्य-
सुखप्रीतिविवर्धनाः।
रस्याः स्निग्धाः स्थिरा हृद्या
आहाराः सात्त्विकप्रियाः॥

"Foods which increase longevity, purity of mind, strength, health, happiness and joy — juicy, wholesome, steady and naturally pleasing — are dear to the sattvic."

भगवद्गीता · Bhagavad Gita 17.8 · ~400 BCE
