Introduction To The Rice Pot Box
A rice bowl represents prosperity, sustenance, fertility, and abundance. Thus a Rice Bowl is reputed to assist you in warding off any evils to the household and, at the same time, aid you in achieving prosperity both in wealth and happiness in your family life. Mostly seen on the hands of the Buddha; traditionally, Buddhist monks would use rice bowls to accept offerings offered by people. They used to survive with the monks' offerings, usually rice, food, or money. Even today, such practice exists in some parts.
