In MahA Bharatham, Lord KrishNA answers DuryodhanA's query on why He did not eat at his palace and instead ate at VidhurA's house. The Lord explained:
sudhdam BhagavathAsyaannam suddham Bhageerathi jalam I
suddham VishNupadha dhyAnam suddham EKAADASI VRATHAM II
suddham VishNupadha dhyAnam suddham EKAADASI VRATHAM II
(MEANING): The food partaken at a BhakthA's house is superior and pure. At the same level of holiness are the intake of
'The food
- over which one sneezed,
- that in which there are worms and insects,
- that which may be mixed with any leavings of dishes,
- that which is mixed with hair,
- that which is mixed with tears,
- that which is trodden upon shall form the portion of these Rakshasas! The learned man, knowing all this, shall carefully avoid these kinds of food.
