I met Padma in May 2008.

邂逅帕德玛是在2008年5月。

That’s why we consider Padma Lakshmi as being theHottest Indian Woman.

这就是我们认为帕德玛·拉克施密是最辣印度女性的原因了。

I spent hours in a fragrance factory in Manhattan watching Padma mix fragrances.

在曼哈顿的一家调味厂我几个小时都在在观看帕德玛调味。

Master Padma said: There are many people who let their Dharma practice become superficial.

莲师说：很多人的修持，都徒具表面。

At the time, Padma was in the midst of trying to figure out how to best leverage her platform-a cooking contest show-into a viable business.

当时她正筹划着如何将展示自己的舞台- - -一次厨师大赛电视片——扩大成一笔可观的生意。

A super model writing recipes isn't something that would normally convince us, but Top Chef host and famous foodie Padma Lakshmi's recipes silenced the skeptic in us.

通常一个超模写的食谱没法让我们信服，但是她还同时是《顶级大厨》的主持人和著名的美食家，帕德玛。拉克施密自然让那些对她的食谱心存怀疑的人噤声了。
