What to do of the Tulasi leaves offered to Krishna

Hare Krishna,

What I do is, dried tulasi leaves and flowers which are dried ( nirmalyam) that is called. When we remove them from Lord we either dig a small pit near the tulsi plant itself to bury it, it becomes manure for the tulsi plant. as it is prasadam from the Lord's feet Tulasi plant gets nutrition from Lord's prasadam to grow.In case your tulasi pot is too small you cannot dig up big pit for putting all the dired flowers or garlands offered to Lord then you do one thing.. collect them in a cover and when you get a chance to go to a river you have to empty the cover contents into a flowing river. Or If you find a banyan tree ( Ashwatta Vriksha) which is considered to be incarnation of Lord In the form of a tree.

Amongst trees I am the peepul tree (sacred fig tree); of the celestial sages I am Narad. Amongst the Gandharvas I am Chitrath, and amongst the siddhas I am the sage Kapil.( Bhagwad Gita 10.26)

So collect these all flowers, garlands, tulsi everything and find a peeple tree and bury it under it by digging the soil near the roots.

Or in case you have a temple which has peepal tree assoicated in the temple complex.. You can just collect the nirmalyam and take them and give to the pujari ( priest) and ask them to bury it along with the flowers, tulasi which they also collect and do whatever they do appropriately. Some temples collect them and throw it in sacred rivers like Ganges or Godavari or Cauvery as per whatever their convience. Some bury it under peeple tree or some bury it in the tulsi garden where people's feet don't touch the place.

Hare Krishna.
