Earth, water, sun and air, all live in this food I prepare. I feel gratitude for my food and all those beings involved in bringing it to my table. I prepare the meal with love, understanding and compassion, knowing these feelings will nourish those I feed.

Thanks so much for this one. I sent it on to 2 friends who love to cook for others.

I liked it. It is like a thanks giving to all. It reminds me one of my earlier blog. cooked rice made into a ball and left to the crow to eat. Not only the crow eats it, whatever left is eaten by smaller birds and then the insects and even bacterias. Preparing meals too is a kind of worship and meditation because you get involved in it. Good feeli8ngs make good food , it becomes more nutritious and digests easily. Well done. Thanks a lot for the kind thoughts. sow more seeds like these. God's grace.
