General guidelines for healthier food – Both body and mind:
- One should be thinking about Perumal (Nama Smaranam) while cooking, and the purpose should be to offer the preparation to Him.
- Once the food is prepared, it should be offered to Perumal first. While offering, one should make sure that the food is neither too hot nor cold. It should be offered with love and affection.
- Please do not offer either pre-cooked food bought from outside or any pre-consumed food.
- Please follow thiruvaradanam kramam as instructed by your respective acharya. (http://anudinam.org/2012/03/08/bhagavad-tiruvaradhanam/)
- Follow ahara niyamam as much as possible. Atleast make sure that onion and garlic are not used at all.(http://anudinam.org/2012/06/11/srivaishnava-ahara-niyamam/)
- Please ensure that food which are not prasadams are not consumed.
On our visit from Kancheepuram we were blessed to receive the famed Kancheepuram-Idly as Perumal’s Maha Praasadam, yesterday.
Today, being Thai Amaavasya Tharpanam day, a doubt cropped about appropriateness of eating yesterdays food-being prassdam. would be really thankful for dispelling my doubt, for clarity.
My anxiety is if consumed, it could be deemed to come in way of Thai Amaavasya requirement: and if it is not eaten: it could be Perumal Apachaaram!
Sree…
