Mantras for cooking/offering/serving/blessing food

[Guest guest]

Here is something that Maa encourages us to do - to cook , offer to

God, and serve food , chanting mantra all the time.

Mantra during cooking:The mantra could be one's own Guru mantra, or a

mantra that one prefers , or "Om Hrim Chandikayai Namah".

Mantra for offering:We chant the Annapurna mantra"Om Annapurne Sada

purne Shankara prana vallabheJnana vairagya siddhyartham Bikshaam

dehe namostuteMata cha Parvati devi Pita Devo MaheshwarahBandava

Shiva Bhaktascha Swadesho Bhuvanatrayam"

Mantra for serving:When we serve food to our family/friend/guest we

chant "Om Hrim Chandikayai Namah"

Mantra for blessing / prayer of gratitude for the food on our

plate:"Om Brahmarpanam Brahma havir Brahmagnau Brahmana

hutamBrahmaiva tena gantavyam Brahma karma Samadhinah

Om Purnamadah Purnamidam Purnaat PurnamudachyatePurnasya Purnamaadaya Purnameva Vasishyate"

That's a highly useful posting to me Nandaji, because it could

advance my culinary activities by leaps and bounds. Futher some of

my dm prayer books seem to have eluded me. My Annapurna, Narayan

Vrat, and Sundar Kundar are gone. If I don't find them soon, it

seems that I must soon make some repurchases. For those of us short

of photographic memories it is rather challenging to pray without dm

prayer books.

 

I've bookmarked this posting on mantra cooking, so now I could put

it to use hereforward. Thank you very much.

 

Do you suppose that there are any mantras to enhance the shopping

and growing of food? If so that could really fine tune both the

food, wood and flower procurement process. It might even inspire me

to return to small scale farming and lumberjacking, although the

most important thing for me is to remain a tapovasin in the

years/decades remaining to me.

 

Jai food, nourishment and nutrition,
