Times Passion Trails presents
Temple Food Trail
Some religions say that when you eat certain foods, God dwells within you.
Food possesses the enigmatic magic of effecting us on a deeper level than just our physical well-being. It is life itself and energises our mind, spirit and soul. The mere aroma of food can send one back in time to an earlier part of his life and stir up long lost memories and emotions.
So, this August 2016, join us on this fascinating 'food for the soul' journey, covering places like Delhi, Mathura, Vrindavan, Jaipur and Nathdwara. We will take a peek into the 'Kitchen of the Gods' and find out how divine food is prepared inside fascinating temples of India like Jagannath and Govind Devji Temple. Maybe, at the end of this trail, you will discover an 'Inner God'.
