Question: Hare Krishna guru Maharaj: If someone is having illness and cannot observe nirjala on Janamastami, is it ok to take anukalpa prasadam?

Guru Maharaj: We take anukalpa in the night. But if they are sick, they want, they can take water, fruits, like that, whatever anukalpa, depending on how sick they are. They should pray to the Lord to forgive them that they are sick and therefore they are taking some anukalpa or water.
