Krishna loves to get gifts
Please don't bring prepared or processed food.
According to Vedic texts and the principles of Bhakti-Yoga, giving gifts to Krishna, also known as offering seva (service) or bhoga (devotional offerings), yields highly spiritual benefits:
- Purification of Intentions: Offering gifts to Krishna helps purify one's intentions and motives by shifting the focus from material desires to spiritual devotion and service.
- Expression of Gratitude: Offering gifts is considered an expression of gratitude towards Krishna's blessings and benevolence in one's life.
- Development of Devotion: Engaging in the act of giving gifts fosters a deeper sense of devotion and attachment to Lord Krishna, strengthening the devotee's relationship with the Divine.
- Spiritual Progression: Offering gifts to Krishna accelerates one's spiritual progression.
- Karma-Yoga: Giving gifts to Krishna is an act of Karma-Yoga, selfless action performed without attachment to the results, which helps in the purification of karma and liberation from the cycle of birth and death.
- Elevation of Consciousness: Through the act of offering gifts, one's consciousness becomes elevated as the mind becomes absorbed in thoughts of Lord Krishna, leading to inner peace and spiritual fulfilment.
- Blessings and Protection: By offering gifts to Lord Krishna, devotees receive the Lord's blessings, protection, and guidance in navigating life's challenges and obstacles.
Overall, giving gifts to Krishna is a powerful means of deepening our spiritual connection with the Supreme and progressing on the path of divine love and devotion.
