Offering Prasad

The Mandir cooks Prasad in house, no outside food is offered to Baba.

The Mandir’s objective is to cook healthy, fresh vegetarian food, on a daily basis and reduce cooked food brought by devotees and sourced from caterers / restaurants.

Devotees who wish to participate in the Prasad program are requested to donate items like Basmati Rice, Ghee, Wheat, Rava and Dal etc., which can be used for Prasad preparation in Baba’s Mandir. Please consult the Prasad coordinators listed below or on the Contact Us page before bringing food donations to the Mandir.

Distribute Prasad to devotees

Devotees may offer Prasad to devotees at the Mandir to celebrate personal occasions such as birthdays, anniversaries and other milestones. This is one way of celebrating your special occasions with Sai Bandhus in Toronto. This is also a way to serve Baba by feeding His devotees.

Devotees may book any day of their choice for Prasad sponsorship, to celebrate personal occasions as below:
Morning Prasad

after Baba’s Abhishek

Noon Prasad

after Madhyan Aarthi

Evening Prasad

after Dhoop Aarthi

It is not necessary that the entire cost of Prasad sponsorship has to be taken up by any one devotee. Devotees may donate any amount that they are comfortable with and the Prasad coordinators will do the rest. The Prasad coordinators may either try to find somebody else to join the sponsorship or arrange food as per Mandir’s guidelines.

The following are very popular days for Prasad sponsorship as there are many devotees in the Mandir:
Thursday

Noon – Madhyan Aarthi

Evening – Dhoop Aarthi

Saturdays

Noon – Madhyan Aarthi

Evening – Dhoop Aarthi

Sunday

Noon – Madhyan Aarthi

Monday to Sunday

Please ensure that you discuss and understand Mandir requirements (Prasad quantity, quality, consumables, etc.) with Prasad coordinators.
