Re: Durga prasada
Hare Krishna,
Would you give some reference to support your statement? It seems to clash with H.D.G.S.Prabhupada's view:
Prabhupada: Kali does not eat meat, but it is the sastra's injunction that those who are unable to give up meat-eating, they may sacrifice one goat, not cow, one small animal before the goddess Kali, on amavasya (new moon) day, night, not day, and they can eat it.
Pancadravida: If it's offered, though, who accepts it? Whose prasadam is it? Who takes it?
Prabhupada: The prasadam is not... That meat is not taken by Kali, but it is taken by the witches and others, associates of Kali.
Brahmananda: In Srimad-Bhagavatam, you write that goddess Kali takes the prasadam of her husband, Lord Siva.
Prabhupada: Yes.
Brahmananda: So therefore she is vegetarian.
Prabhupada: Yes.
