Terra Madre talks: Satish Kumar; food is a communal journey.

Food is a communal journey, but it’s more than just feeding our bodies: it feeds our soul. If a food isn’t good, if it’s not fruit of a communal journey, then our soul suffers and dies. Satish Kumar discusses his idea of food and its value, which must be understood from many points of view, including the spiritual satisfaction we derive from it.

Satish Kumar is an Indian British activist and speaker. He has been a Jain Monk, a nuclear disarmament advocate and pacifist. He is now living in Devon, England and he writes for the Resurgence & ecologist magazine. He is founder and Director of programmes of the Schumacher College international centre for ecological studies.

Let’s listen to his food talk, good for our souls and our thoughts!
