The Offering Bowls Set is a collection of seven small water offering bowls crafted from metal and Nepal. These bowls hold significant meaning in Buddhist rituals, particularly as water offerings, also known as 'yonchap' in Tibetan tradition. Water offerings are deeply rooted in Buddhist practice, symbolizing purification, generosity, and reverence.
Each bowl in the set represents a different aspect of the ritual:
- Prostrations to Buddha
- Offerings
- Confession
- Rejoicing the positive
- Requesting Buddha's guidance
- Asking Buddha to remain with you
- Dedication
The act of offering water symbolises offering freely, mirroring the abundance and generosity of water itself, which is especially significant in Tibetan culture, where water is considered a plentiful substance.
These meticulously crafted bowls, each measuring approximately 5cm in diameter and 2.5cm in height, are perfect for creating your Buddhist shrine. They add a touch of sacredness to your spiritual space and remind you of the essential aspects of Buddhist practice and devotion.
