Introduction To Offering Bowl :
A rice bowl is a clear representation of 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 in the hands of the Buddha; traditionally, rice bowls would be used by Buddhist monks to accept offerings offered by people. With the offerings the monks received, normally rice or food or money, they used to survive. Even today, such practice exists in some parts.
