''Prasāda'' (, Sanskrit: प्रसाद), ''prasadam'' or ''prasad'' is a religious offering in Hinduism. Most often ''Prasada'' is vegetarian food especially cooked for devotees after praise and thanksgiving to a god. ''Mahaprasada'' (also called ''bhandarā''), is the consecrated food offered to the deity in a Hindu temple which is then distributed and partaken by all the devotees regardless of any orientation.
''Prasada'' is closely linked to the term ''naivedya'', also spelt ''naivedhya'', ''naibedya'' or naived(h)yam. The food offered to the deity is called ''naivedya'', while the sacred food sanctified and returned by the deity as a blessing is called ''prasada''. Provided by Wikipedia
