If one talks of a temple, one talks of dedication also. While giving bath to a deity in temples or derasars, the milk used is nothing but flowing of a non-living
substance on a lifeless thing. Is tủis not wastage? When a large number of poor living beings do not get
a drop of water or a fistful of grains, how can one justify the milk baths to the deities or drawing of auspicious figures using rice on a wooden plank?
God craves nothing but your dedication. . How is it justifiable to offer to the deity pot-full of milk or any amount of grains when it does not
demand a drop of milk or a single grain? Isn't it more justifiable to offer these things to the
needy?
