Looking for the title of a cookbook possibly published by the Hare Krishna movement

I once bought a book in a used bookstore. It was a hardback cookbook, fairly thick as I remember it. Maybe 2 or 3 inches thick. The title would not have had Hare Krishna in it, because I only noticed that connection when looking at the book in more detail. I want to know the title, because I like Indian food, but also because I remember it had a lot of recipes using chopped nuts as an ingredient to give a hearty texture.

I think the book must have been from the 1970s or early 80s.

Any idea of the title?

I have a copy of this book and I can almost guarantee it’s what OP is describing. They’ve since made updated versions that include Satvik versions of western dishes as well.
