Navratri

Navratri is a holy nine-day festival that celebrates the divine feminine and pays homage to the victory of good over evil. Celebrated with devotion, fasting, music and dance, this festival unites families and communities in a spirit of celebration and spiritual reflection. At The Belly Rules The Mind, we celebrate the spirit of Navratri with wholesome, meatless recipes that still align with traditional fasting rules, yet keep us satisfyingly varied and comfy. Our most important focus is on wholesome, sattvic ingredients such as fruits, flours, and spices that immerse you in energy and sustenance, especially during this spiritually significant time.

 

So, here goes — a curation of vegetarian Navratri recipes spanning from traditional and authentic to modern. Whether you observe a full fast or just want to honor the event with lighter, plant-based meals, our recipes are designed to add balance, flavor and meaning to your plate. Whether you are making nutrient-rich snacks or festive sweets, our Navratri offerings celebrate food as a form of devotion — pure, simple and shared with love.
