Guest guest Report post Posted June 6, 2009 Namaste Manishji, In fact it is better as the vibration of the mantras and the fire would also be beneficial to the fetus and the mother. Ensure the prasadam is consumed by the pregnant lady as she also nourishes the fetus. The devas/devis whom we propitiate and seek blessings from are all ethereal beings in subtle forms, and as such they eat/accept prasadams/naivedyam/offerings through the sense of smell, which is of a very superior order. Hence, it is better to avoid: 1. Smelling the naivedyam/offerings before offering to the devas/devis, as this would tantamount to offering soiled food. Would you accept soiled food from your host? The same rules applies to the divine beings too. 2. Women in their periods (mentruating) emanate a smell which may not be detected by human beings olfactory senses, however, the devis/devas can detect it instantly, and are repelled by it. Its like you are being invited to dinner at your friends place and garbage and foul smell permeate the house, would you feel respected or even comfortable in such an ambience? No. The same is the thing with divine beings. 3. Some basic cleanliness procedure like bathing has to be observed. Even Aghoris/tantriks who do sadhana in smashan (crematorium) observere basic cleanliness procedure before starting their ritual. Hope this helps.
