Are Tulsi Infusion allowed for devotees?

Posted by Veda Ambodhkar on May 14, 2012 at 3:56am in Modern day life

Hare Krsna..& pranam to all.

recently my uncle had bought me a box of organic tusi infusions. However upon reading the directions i came to know that we r supposed to pour boiling water into a cup containg a little of the dried tusi leaves and then brew it.

but is this brewing and and drinking infusions of the sacred tusi accepted according to the vaishnava tradition( or in ISKCON) ?

please help me solve this doubt.

    Dear devotee,  Hare Krsna.  devotees do not make tea with tulasi leaf.   You can sprinkle it on some offerings you make to Krsna  then it will be used in Krsna's service and your uncle will get some benefit too.  Hare Krsna.

        Hare Krsna Prabhuji,

        PAMHO.

        We pray to Tulsi Maharani. We do not boil the leaves of Tulsi so as to not hurt her. We can use Tulsi leaves in the service of the lord, on top of offerings to Him.

        Haribol,

        YOur servant,

        Rashmi
