A subsequent Sahasra nAmam will say that we should not consume the prasAdham offered to other dEvathAs. If so , what should we do with respect to prasAdhams offered to nithya mukthAs like AdhisEshan, GaruthmAn et al? The answer is , yes , we can certainly consume such prasAdhams.There are no special injunctions like the one , which prohibits us from consuming the prasAdham offered to VishvaksEnar.When we perform AarAdhanam for PerumAL with SankAzhwAr and ChakratthAzhwAr , we perform Thirumanjanam for them as instructed by our AchAryAs;hence partaking of their prasAdhams is accepted. 466)(PraNavam) SEnEsa dhvArapAlAdhi naivEdhyaadhyathva BaadakAya nama: Salutations to the great AchAryan , who established that we should not partake the prasAdhams offered to VishvaksEna , DhvArapAlakAs and GaNAthipathis like Kumudhan et al ! VishvaksEna (SEnai MudaliyAr ) prasAdham should not be consumed by us although He is a Nithya Mukthar and third in our AchArya Paramparai . Aagams stress this position. SrI Vangipuram Nampi's nithya Kaarikai states that the food offered to VishvaksEnar should be disbursed in pure water of the rivers or pushkaraNis. That annam is intended for those who sought refuge at VishvaksEnA's Thiruvadi, who live in PaathALa lOkam (nether. world). It is VishvaksEnA's command that annam is intended for those PaathaLa Vaasis , who sought the refuge of His feet. 467) (PraNavam) SEnEsa havirAmBhi pakshabhEdha nirUpakAya nama: Salutations to that great AchAryan , who accepted the preferred view that we can consume the PrasAdham offered to VishvaksEnar! Swamy Desikan also accepted the reasoning behind the other point of view that VishvaksEna PrasAdham can be consumed by us by considering us as members of the VishvaksEna parivAram . BhOja Raaja has written about this point of view.We are indeed sishyAs of VishvaksEnar and hence AchArya prasAdham is perfectly appropriate for us to consume. Swamy Desikan cited both the views and seems to prefer this view of acceptance. The acceptance of PrasAdhams offered to DhwAra PaalakAs and Kumudhan et al is however prohibited.
