prasada

In Hinduism, consecrated food offered to the deity and then distributed to worshipers, who consume it as a sign of the god's favour. Prasada is used both in temple ceremonies, where it may be offered to a god such as Krishna and then distributed by the priests, and at household shrines, where it is offered to the god and then handed out to household members. See also puja.
