Anything that has touched the feet/legs is not accepted by Prabhu (Page adeli cheej Prabhu-ne na Khape):
One time, on a day of eclipse, the container (kalash) was filled with water and lef on the sill (manchi). At this point, the container fell and the water (accidently) came under Vitthalraiji's feet, who was at that time also filling the bucket/container.
For this, (he) had all the water in these containers was thrown away, because having touched his feet, it cannot be used for Thakorji (Padsesh thayu maate Prabhu ne naa khape).
Vivechan - Gaduvo bharta jal dhalyu (while filling the container, the water spilled /fell), and that water came under the feet, therefore the water that remained in the container also was considered as having come under the feet (not just the water that came under the feet), In seva one should always be very careful and aware of all such minute details. One should do the seva in such a way that people don't see/find out things, but one should not give up seva in fear of committing mistakes (apraadh). One who does seva, their mistakes fall (are reduced/dissolved). But what of those who don't do seva ? Prabhu does not keep a count of such mistakes (apradhs). But one should be extremely careful (in performing seva)
