Re: Sharing offerings/Prasad with non-Hindu?
Namaste,
You can share Prasad with anyone if they have respect to Prasad as Prasad. Who is from other religion / faith here ? No one. It is all our delusion to think so. " Vaasudevah sarvam iti" ===> All this is but God alone. "Aham Atman GudAkesha sarvabhUtashaya sthitah" ===> I am the Atman in the Heart of all beings. What is AtmAn ? It is the essence of what we are. We are all essentially AtmAn alone. If that is true then who is the "other one" ? Hindus believe in "Vasudhaiva kutumbkam" ===> The whole earth is just one family !
Anandini ji has correctly stated in her above post that all things which we offer to God are His alone :
"Tvadiya vastu Govinda tubhyameva samarpaye" === I offer you things which You yourself gave to us.
OM
"Om Namo Bhagvate Vaasudevaye"
