Prasad

Divine Peace Foundation promotes serving of free food, clothes, and education to the unpreviledged. Feeding the hungry with expecting nothing in return is the biggest service towards God. Food offered to God, a deity or a saint, is called prasad. 'Prasad' literally means a gracious gift. 

 

In accordance with the principles enshrined in the Holy Bhagwad Geeta, we at Divine Peace Foundation believe in sharing prasad with everyone without expecting anything in return. In the 26th verse of Chapter 9, the Blessed Lord says:

 
पत्रं पुष्पं फलं तोयं यो मे भक्त्या प्रयच्छति।
तदहं भक्त्युपहृतमश्नामि प्रयतात्मनः।।9.26।।
 
 
Whoever offers Me with devotion a leaf, a flower, a fruit or a little water that, so offered with devotion by the pure-minded, I accept. (9.26)
