Tibetan Buddhism

Eating as Practice

Transforming meals into dharma through mindfulness and offering.

Before eating, offer the food to the buddhas. Eat mindfully, appreciating the interdependence that brought food to your plate. Dedicate the merit of eating to all beings.

This food is the gift of the whole universe.
