Sutra
The word “Sutra” has deep roots in Indian philosophy, literature, and spirituality. It literally means “thread” or “string”, but its meaning extends far beyond the literal.
Philosophical and Spiritual Context in Ancient Indian texts, a sutra is a concise, aphoristic statement or verse that expresses a key principle or teaching. Famous examples include Yoga Sutras of Patanjali (teachings on yoga), Brahma Sutras (on Vedanta philosophy or Dharma Sutras (on law and ethics) and more famously Kama Sutras to name a few.
However, a Symbolic Meaning would be “Thread of knowledge”, It represents the thread that ties together deeper truth or wisdom. A sutra connects ideas, practices, or teachings—like a thread holding a garland of beads together.
The word is often used to evoke something refined, profound, and rooted in tradition. It suggests a structured beauty—minimal yet rich in meaning.
In the context of our restaurant, SUTRA beautifully conveys a thread connecting India’s diverse cuisines into a single experience.
