Prasad, Vegetarianism ...

Verse 1.13.47 (Deepthi Mji):

* Srila Prabhupada's nectarine purports!
* What is the difference between a human being and an animal.
- the opportunity for self realization in human beings
* Power of prasad
- SP tells what to eat, what not to eat
- Taking remnants of the Lord to purify ourselves
- partaking of remnants of pure devotees
- prasad is very powerful, so we should always offer prescribed foodstuffs to the Lord
* Exploitation
- contrary, in the devotees circle, its only love
- all other places are exploitation only
* SP also described how a true leader should be
- should understand KC, be God conscious and hence awaken in the general masses too
- Like Maharaj Yudhistira, Maharaj Parikshit etc.
- then all problems will go away
* Krishna Consciousness is such a simple, sublime process meant to change our heart. When our heart changes, we can treat everyone equally and have loving relationships with everyone.

YKPR:
* While speaking of Veg, non-veg, we quote this shloka.
* When asked about the killing of plants too by vegetarians, this shloka of Narada muni is used.
* Veg food is also not really veg, then emphasis is there on Prasad. Once it is honored by Krishna, that no sin is involved.
