Lord Himself Eats What Is Offered To Him

Photo: FB860 *   Lord Himself Eats What Is Offered To Him. *

" Nivedana " does not mean making the Lord really "eat " what is offered. He does not have to eat. Puja is meant to make us inwardly pure and the Lord does not have to gain from it. "Nivedayaami" means " i am making it known to you ( informing you )" and does not mean " I am feeding you ". You must speak thus to Ishwara, " O Lord, in your compassion you have given us this food ". Thus, after offering the food to the Lord , thinking of Him we must eat the food. 
Without His grace how does the rice grow ? 
Experts may conduct research and write big tomes of rice. But are they capable of making one grain of rice ?

What is called synthetic rice is made of materials already created by Ishwara. So all that seems to be made of man must be finally traced to God's creation. To enjoy what he has given us without first presenting it to Him would be tantamount to thieving.
