prasada to poor people; some relevant quotes

Just to the point?

 

Do you mean that it is just to the point that 100 000 000

meals of *prasada* distributed to the conditioned souls is

to be understood now as "nourishing a snake with milk and

bananas" that "entraps men in maya"?

 

As you said yourself, if the foodstuffs are indeed offered to

Krsna then it's a transcendental activity that as such should

always be encouraged. If that is really the case, how then

it can be said that those quotes were "just to the point"?

 

What kind of paradox is here?

When people are benefited spiritually, seems to be no problem.

But when people are benefited simultaneously, in the same

"stroke", both spiritually *and* materially, then there seems

to be no scarcity of quotes and arguments to condemn it as

if an unacceptable nonsense. Where is the common sense here?
