Prasadam Distribution : Such misconduct should not Repeat

Please accept my blessings. Now you must arrange in each temple there must be sufficient stock of prasadam for distribution. You can keep first-class cooks, two or three, and they should be always engaged. Whenever any guest comes, he must get prasad. This arrangement must be made, that the cooks prepare ten-twenty servings at a time, of puris and sabji, and then you can add halavah and pakoras and the visitors may be supplied immediately. Whenever a gentleman comes, he must be served. As the twenty servings are being distributed, immediately the cooks prepare another twenty servings and store it. At the end of the day if no one comes, our own men will take, so there is no loss. You cannot say, “It is finished,” “It is not cooked yet,” “There is no supply for cooking,” etc. This must be enforced rigidly.

The temple is managed by Srimati Radharani, Laksmiji; so why should there be want? Our philosophy is, if anyone comes, let him take prasad, chant Hare Kṛṣṇa, and be happy. Everything is being supplied by Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa is not poor, so why should we deny them? This should be done at any cost. There is no difficulty. It simply requires nice management. At the end of the day you may sell or give away. If we believe that Kṛṣṇa is providing for and maintaining everyone, then why should we be misers? This means losing faith in Kṛṣṇa and thinking that we are the doers and suppliers. We are confident Kṛṣṇa will supply! Let the whole world come. We can feed them. So please do this nicely. Begin at once.
