@pujari_anup @coolfunnytshirt Some addition(Clarification) to your post:

1. Prasad is free if you ask for a handful, Noone will ask you a single rupee, If you want to buy a meal, it's paid, B'cz the quality of grains and materials have a cost associated with it and there are more then 50+ items on a regular+
