With proper guidance, anyone can turn ordinary food into a spiritual substance.

The phenomenon of something changing from material to spiritual is an extraordinary one, but it is

something we as devotees are involved in dailyoften several times a day. It happens when prasadam

(unoffered food) becoming prasadam, or food sanctified by the Lord.

When I was a new devotee in Montreal, we arranged a program that was to be given on campus at McGill

University. The leaflet advertising the program read, See matter transformed into spirit before your very

eyes. That title certainly drew interest from a lot of people.

During the program, the temple president was giving the presentation, and he was leading up to this

point. Finally he said, OK, now its going to happen. You are going to see spirit manifest before your very

eyes.

The students were sitting on the edge of their seats. The plate of unoffered food, which was the feast for

that day, was brought in and placed in front of a picture of Panca-tattva (Lord Chaitanya and His four

main associates). A devotee then bowed down, rang the bell, and uttered some mantras.

Finally he stood and declared, Here it is! We brought in ordinary food, and now its transformed into

spiritual substance.

And before anyone could challenge, he said, The proof will be that you eat it now and see the effect that

it has.

As Krishna says, pratyakshavagamam dharmyam:The principle of religion is understood by direct

experience. (Bhagavad-gita9.2), or in this case, the proof is certainly in the tasting. Those who have

tasted Krishnas prasadamknow that it has extraordinary potency, and eating it is a very different

experience from eating food that isnt offered to the Lord with love and devotion.

So when does prasadambecome prasadam? When it is offered, certainly. But for an offering to be

successful, it must be accepted. When Krishna accepts what we offer to Him, it becomes prasadam. The

word prasadammeans mercy, and in the Bhagavad-gitaLord Krishna says, prasade sarva-duhkhanam

hanir asyopajayate:Receiving the mercy of the Lord destroys all misery. Therefore, when we eat (or, as

we say, honor) prasadam, we feel elated. prasadamdestroys the results of our past sinful activities. Rupa

Goswami says it makes us feel very auspicious.

And what is it that is really being accepted? Is it the foods itself? Krishna says in the Bhagavad-gita

(9.26),

patram pushpam phalam toyam

yo me bhaktya prayacchati

tad aham bhakty-upahritam

ashnami prayatatmanah

If one offers Me with love and devotion a leaf, a flower, fruit, or water, I will accept it. He says, I accept

the bhakti. You may offer a leaf, a flower, fruit, milk, or ghee-cooked preparations, but the devotion is

what carries those preparations to Krishna, and thats what makes Him inclined to accept it. Sri

Ishopanishad(Mantra 5) tells us, tad dure tad v antike:although Krishna is very far away, He is also very

close. So wherever we are when we offer something to Krishna, devotion brings Him right to us.

We should recognize, however, that not all offerings are on the same level; they depend on the nature of

the devotee. Although there are many ways to categorize devotees, in this case we may consider three

types: motivated, pure, and love-saturated devotees. Consequently, their offerings will fall into one of

these three categories.

The Motivated Offering

A motivated offering is when something is offered to Krishna with the idea that some material benefit will

come in return, such as liberation from material suffering: If I give this to Krishna, Ill be prosperous, Ill be

healthy, my children will find suitable spouses, and so on. Or someone might desire to be free from

suffering, or to recover from an illnessthis is offering with motivation. But even that motivated offering

can be done in two ways. If it is done through the guru-parampara, the succession of gurus, then Krishna

will accept it, because pure devotees are very merciful, and to elevate motivated devotees they beseech

Krishna to accept their meager offerings. In other words, it is the purity of the devotees in the guru-

paramparathat transforms the impure offering into a pure offering. If a motivated person just makes an

offering whimsically, however, not through a guru-parampara, then the offering doesnt become

prasadambut remains prasadam. Yet still such offerings have value in the sense that the person is

thinking, At least I am offering this to Krishna.

Of course, whatever way people think of Krishna is beneficial. Akama, sarva-kama, moksha-kama:

without material desires, full of material desires, or desiring liberation. In each case they become

gradually purified. But unless Krishna exercises some extraordinary mercy, He doesnt accept food

offered with ulterior motives. Yasyaprasadan na gatih kuto pi:Without the grace of the spiritual master,

one cannot make any advancement. (Gurvashtaka8) Krishna wont accept something unless it comes

through the guru-parampara.


3/7

An interesting question often arises regarding congregation members or new devotees who are not

initiated but who are making offerings: Are the offerings prasadamor prasadam? In this case we should

consider the potency of the disciplic succession. The disciplic succession is not restricted to initiated

devotees. If someone receives an instruction from an authorized Vaishnava to offer food, then Krishna

will accept their offering. Krishna wont reject their sincere approach, because such persons are, in effect,

accepting the guru-paramparaeven though they have not yet gone through the process of diksha.

The Pure Offering

The second type of offering is the pure offering, when a devotee offers something to Krishna to please

Him. A devotee has no selfish motives; he only wants please the Lord. Therefore at home he offers food

to a picture, to a deity, to a shalagrama-shila. And in the temple, pure-hearted pujaristry to please Gaura-

Nitai and Radha-Krishna. But even in this category there are two types of offerings: regulated and

spontaneous. Regulated offerings are done out of duty, following all the rules and regulations. The other

also involves the devotee doing everything just right, but out of a spontaneous attachment to the Lord.

Such a devotee has a certain degree of affection, and the dominant thought is not one of obligation"I

will do this because Ive been instructed to by guru and shastra. Yet by doing things according to guru

and shastra, devotees awaken their natural attraction to Krishna and perform spontaneous acts of

devotion out of affection. This affection is a little different from mature love, spiritual love, but it is genuine.

Still, both these pure offerings have to be made through the guru-parampara.

The prasadamis also different in this category. When you offer something to Krishna out of duty, He

accepts it out of duty. He feels duty-bound. In the Bhagavad-gita(3.24) Krishna says, If I didnt follow the

rules and regulations, then other people would be misled. Krishna is acting out of duty. But Krishna

considers that of all the devotees who are surrendered to Him, the one who is offering things to Him with

affection is most dear to Him. Consequently, Krishna reciprocates in kind: He responds with loving

affection toward that devotee.

Naturally the question arises, Are there different kinds of prasadam? And the answer, then, is yes.

Krishna says, ye yatha mam prapadyante tams tathaiva bhajamyaham:As all surrender unto Me, I

reward them accordingly. (Bg. 4.11) According to the quality and quantity of devotion with which one

makes an offering to Krishna, that offering proportionately becomes prasadam. It is interesting to note

that a devotees ability to taste prasadamwill also be in proportion to his or her ability to offer prasadam.

In other words, devotees will taste the spiritual nature of prasadamin the same degree they are

manifesting devotion in the offering.

The Offering in Pure Love

The third kind of offering is that which is done with pure love. When devotees come to the stage of loving

devotion, Krishna directly accepts offerings from their hands, and He reciprocates with them in kind.

Loving devotion is that which is exhibited by Krishnas eternal associates in the spiritual world, where He

is directly engaged in tasting all the types of love His devotees offer.

So what is it thats different, and how is it that prasadambecomes spiritual? The food looks the same

before and after the offering, but what actually happens is that Krishna reciprocates with the devotion of

the devotee by manifesting His svarupa-shakti, or His daivi-prakriti, His internal spiritual potency, to the


4/7

degree that the devotee allows. By allows I mean to the degree the devotee wants, or to the degree that

he manifests a quality and quantity of devotional service. When Chaitanya Mahaprabhu was in

Jagannatha Puri and tasted Jagannatha prasadam, He became overwhelmed by the ecstatic taste of the

prasadam. He glorified the prasadamand could directly taste the saliva of Krishnas lotus lips mixed in

with the food. He went on to glorify the effect of the touch of Krishnas lips.

This is what happens when someone in loving devotion tastes food that has been offered to the Lord. And

in this case, no doubt, Chaitanya Mahaprabhus ability to taste the potency of the prasadamexceeds that

of the brahmanas who offered it to Lord Jagannatha. But, still, that prasadamis Krishnas internal

potency. It is non-different from Krishna, and it is dynamic. A loving devotee may taste more of the

spiritual potency present in prasadamthan was originally manifest to the pujariwho offered it.

We may also consider the examples of Prahlada Maharaja and Mirabai: Both were given poison to drink,

but because of their great loving devotion, the poison was transformed into nectar and had no effect. Why

is that? Because both poison and nutritious food are part of the relativity of this material world. But when

we offer something with love to Krishna, then Krishnas sac-cid-ananda potency manifests in that food. In

this way, poison becomes as much prasadamas a pakoradoes.

Offering Our Lives

We shouldnt think, however, that an offering is simply the prasadamor food we offer to Krishna.

Devotees make their entire life an offering:

yat karoshi yad ashnasi

yaj juhoshi dadasi yat

yat tapasyasi kaunteya

tat kurushva mad-arpanam

Krishna is saying, Whatever you do, whatever you eat, whatever you offer or give away, and whatever

austerities you performdo that, O son of Kunti, as an offering to Me. (Bg. 9.27) Ultimately every breath

a devotee takes is an offering: when devotees sleep because they need to maintain their bodies for

Krishnas service, then that sleep becomes an offering to the Lord; their eating to maintain their bodies so

they can remain healthy to serve Krishna is an offering to the Lord; when they receive anythingfood,

soap, moneyall of these things are offered to Krishna. In New Vraja Dhama (the devotee farm

community in Hungary) anything the devotees acquire or receive, they first offer to Radha-

Syamasundara, the presiding deities, on a tray that sits before the altar. In this way the practice of

offering everything to Krishna becomes natural.

We should learn how to offer everything. We rise early in the morning, and the first thing we do is offer

prayers to the Lord. We chant Hare Krishna not as entertainment but as an offering to glorify Krishna. And

when someone lives like that, then in one sense the act of making the offering becomes unnecessary

(although devotees do it to set the example) because such devotees are always absorbed in doing

everything for Krishna. Therefore, yo me bhaktya prayacchatithe bhaktiis already there, and Krishna is

very eager to receive it. In fact, Krishna follows behind devotees to accept their loving devotion every


5/7

moment of the day, in every movement of their bodies, and in every thought they manifest in relation to

their devotional service to Him.

Ultimately this is what we aspire for, and this is what loving devotees do: they live for Krishna, and thus

everything they do becomes Krishna consciousit becomes prasadam. The cowherd boys simply sit

down with Krishna and eat from their lunch packsthey dont make any offering to Krishna. When theyoffer something to Krishna, they take from their lunch packs and put it right in Krishnas mouth. Or they

may even bite off half a sweetball and then say, Oh, Krishna, just see how wonderful this sweetball

tastes! and put the rest in Krishnas mouth. Yo me bhaktya prayacchati:its just their love. The formality

and technicality of offering is no longer relevant, because what Krishna really wants is the love and

devotion. Thats all that actually interests Him. And whether Mother Yashoda offers her breast milk, the

gopisoffer their bodies, the cows offer their milk, the cowherd boys wrestle and jump on Krishnas

shoulderseverything becomes prasadambecause everything is an offering of love.

Our business in Krishna consciousness, therefore, is to live in this world of prasadamand thereby

become prasadamourselves. This is what Krishna concludes in the Bhagavad-gita(4.24) when He says,

brahmarpanam brahma havir brahmagnau brahmana hutam...: A person who is fully absorbed in

Krishna consciousness is sure to attain the spiritual kingdom because of his full contribution to spiritual

activities. If were thinking about offering everything to Krishna, if our physical acts are an offering to

Krishna, if our words are an offering to Krishna, then ultimately we become an offering to Krishna. Then

we become prasadam. And Krishna is always very eager to taste the wonderful mellows of our loving

offerings to Him.
