Please excuse me for taking your holy time for a moment. In my recent visit to Sri Vrindavan Dham it came to my notice that a great danger is approaching us. The danger is the decay of Gaudiya Math standards of sattvic recycling material for distribution of Prasadam during Mahotsavas and Prasadam distribution. For lack of thought and information some very grave mistakes are being introduced in many temples. Plastic bags have been banned from Vrindavan.
Cows eating the bags sometimes die.
These plastic bags and plastic cups do not decay. Their terrible contaminating influence will be with us for much longer then we and many generations after us will live. Most of the plastic ends up in the holy Yamuna causing danger there. Later the plastic goes into the ocean which is already a plastic infested body of water. Plastic is never clean or pucca.
