Is the killing of animals in the name of sacrifice to God beneficial?

[Manasa asked: Padanamaskaram Swami, most people believe in giving animal sacrifices to Goddesses like Maisamma and Ellamma, especially in problematic situations like sickness in family and financial crisis. After the sacrifice, they get relieved of their problems and hence are encouraged to do it again because they experienced benefit. When killing of animals in the name of sacrifice to God is sin, why do people experience benefit after the sacrifice? Please enlighten me. - At Your Divine Lotus Feet, Manasa]

Swami Replied: - The benefit is not really experienced, but is super-imposed on their brains as brainwash. A crow sits on the branch of a palm tree and a fruit of that branch is almost ready to fall down. Even if the crow does not land on the branch, the fruit will certainly fall. It is an accidental coincidence, which does not take place every time. It takes place only in some instance and this is extended and generalized for every instance. The killing of the animal before the Divine Mother makes Her to become very furious and also to shed hot tears for the sake of the torture received by the animal, which is Her beloved issue!
