Finally, after a long 3 years or so, we again started our Prasadam distribution to the old folks’ retirement home.
Very happy to see them all smiling like this. Although we couldn’t see them face to face, we could see their pictures and could understand, by reading Srila Prabhupada’s books, how much fortunate that they are to be able to receive Krishna Prasadam!
CC/Antya/16/97 : Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu replied, “These are remnants of food that Kṛṣṇa has eaten and thus turned to nectar with His lips. It surpasses heavenly nectar, and even such demigods as Lord Brahmā find it difficult to obtain.
CC/Antya/16/98 : “Remnants left by Kṛṣṇa are called phelā. Anyone who obtains even a small portion must be considered very fortunate.
CC/Antya/16/99 : “One who is only ordinarily fortunate cannot obtain such mercy. Only persons who have the full mercy of Kṛṣṇa can receive such remnants.
CC/Antya/16/100 : “The word ‘sukṛti’ refers to pious activities performed by the mercy of Kṛṣṇa. One who is fortunate enough to obtain such mercy receives the remnants of the Lord’s food and thus becomes glorious.”
