Six Loving Exchanges

Six Loving Exchanges

A devotional painting of people sharing prasādam

Rūpa Gosvāmī names offering and accepting prasādam among six loving exchanges. In a simple shared meal, one person may offer food with care and another may receive it with gratitude.

Whether at home or at a temple, sharing appropriately offered prasādam can be a practical occasion for hospitality, gratitude and service.
