WHAT DOES PRASAD MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Prasad

Prasad

Prasāda is a material substance of food that is a religious offering in both Hinduism and Sikhism, which is consumed by worshippers. Prasadam offered on banana leaves after Puja ceremony at a home in Guntur, India Literally, a gracious gift. Anything, usually an edible food, that is first offered to a deity, saint, Perfect Master or an Avatar and then distributed in His or Her name to their followers or others as a good sign. The prasad is then considered to have the deity's blessing residing within it. In contemporary Hindu religious practice in India, the desire to get prasada and have darshana are the two major motivations of pilgrimage and temple visits. Thaal offered to Nar Narayan at a Swaminarayan temple in Ahmedabad As a spiritual state prasāda has a rich history of meanings in the Sanskrit tradition from Vedic literature onwards. In this textual tradition, prasada is a mental state experienced by gods, sages, and other powerful beings which is marked by spontaneous generosity and the bestowing of boons. Prasāda is understood in this sense of a mental state from the earliest literature onwards — not as an aspect of ritual practice.
