Sadhu is a word that comes from the Pali language with the meaning “good”. According to many legends, this is a saying that Shakyamuni Buddha said to Buddhists in the process of saving sentient beings. People use this phrase “How good” to encourage and praise the good deeds that Buddhists have done. Gradually, Sadhu became more and more popular with the development of Buddhism, praising goodness and sharing peace and luck with everyone. That is also the reason why the creators of Sadhu vegetarian restaurant chose this name to spread kindness to diners, reflecting the restaurant’s operating motto.
