For those of you who wonder what I do when I clap my hands together and bow before I eat:
(1)
This food is a gift from the entire universe: the earth, the sky, numerous living beings, and much hard work.
(2)
May I eat this food with mindfulness and gratitude so as to be worthy of receiving it.
(3)
May I transform my negative emotions of greed and learn to eat in moderation.
(4)
We accept this food to nourish us on the path of Love and Understanding and to achieve our ideal of serving all beings.
(5)
We accept this food to nourish our brothers and sisters and to help bring us closer together as a community, as a family.
