The Art of Living Foundation (ALF), founded by spiritual Guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar Maharaj, would be attempting to break Guinness Book world record by cooking highest number of vegetarian food items by an organisation using community kitchens on November 2.
"We at the ALF believe just like prayer helps us connect spiritually with the Supreme being, food is also one of the mediums to connect to God," Rishi Nityapragya of the foundation told reporters.
"Devotees of Guruji (Sri Sri Ravi Shankar) would be attempting to prepare 5000 vegetarian food items, totalling around five tonnes, using over 250 community kitchens here on November 2," Nityapragya said.
"The present Guinness record is of 4600 food items, and we would be attempting to break it in the presence of Guruji himself who will bless the people during the event which we call Annan Brahm or annakoot," he added.
The unique thing about this big kitchen would be that all the ingredients used for cooking shall be organic, chemical free and the preparation would be based of ayurvedic principles.
As many as 1.25 lakh people from across the country are expected to participate in the event.
These people are not professional, but common persons from all walks of life, Nityapragya said.
Nityapragya further said devotees would prepare specialities according to their regional affiliation.
The food items prepared would be distributed by Guruji as Prashad to nearly 25 thousand underprivileged children in the city, he added.
Nityapragya said that this was an occasion after nearly six years that Sri Sri Ravi Shankar was visiting Gujarat and would be staying for nearly a week.
During his visit to the state, he would also be conducting puja in Rajkot and Vadodara, besides conducting a mega course on Art of Living.
Nityapragya said that according to Guruji, India has seven unique things whose diversity and richness were unparallelled in the world which include music, dance, food, tourism, attire, Yoga and ayurveda.
