EXPLAINING DHARMA IN SUBTLE WAY


A devotee said, "Curd rice remained in excess. Gave it to the cow. It ate with satisfaction."
Periyavaa said: "Should not give curd rice or rice mixed with milk to the cow. The curd is obtained from the milk, and the milk from the cow."
The devotee was restless: "I have committed an apacaram (offense), should pardon me!"
"Let it go; don't repeat it. You can feed pranis (animals) like dogs with annam mixed with milk, ghee or curd; but not the cows."
It is possible only for Periyavaa to teach the dharma suksma (subtleties of dharma) in a way that sticks to the mind and heart!
