This is a query related to prasadam from a nearby temple at Chromepet. Adiyen hears to upanyasam-s and participating in Kalakshepam-s (Specifically those delivered by Sri Vasudevachar Svami) conducted by GSPK. As a result, has benefited immensely. Adiyen goes to the temple both in the mornings and evenings. The temple has the practice of leaving leftover prasadam (mostly rice-based preparations) outside the temple in the vessels that were used during the offering. The cows of the neighborhood eat directly from these vessels. Is this an appropriate practice? There is a possibility that stray dogs could also make contact with these vessels. Is this an appropriate conduct? It is of no avail even after I have taken this up issue with temple authorities. I am confused about whether to accept that prasadam; adiyen is afraid that accepting the prasadam might be improper conduct and not accepting temple prasadam is sinful. Kindly clarify.
