Significance of the Eight Outer Offerings:
In Tibetan Buddhist tradition, the eight symbolic offerings include:

  1. Water for drinking – Representing hospitality and refreshment

  2. Water for washing – Signifying purification

  3. Flowers – A gesture of beauty and impermanence

  4. Incense – Purifying the space with fragrant offerings

  5. Light – Dispelling darkness with wisdom

  6. Perfume – Symbolizing purification and delighting the senses

  7. Food – Representing nourishment and abundance

  8. Music – Offering joyful sound for the benefit of all beings

While each bowl can be filled with its symbolic offering, it is common to fill all bowls with clean water as a simple yet meaningful act of offering. The eighth offering, light, is traditionally represented by a butter lamp or tealight placed alongside the bowls.

How to Use:

  • Arrange the 7 bowls in a row on your shrine or altar.

  • Fill them with fresh water or traditional offerings.

  • Place a lamp or candle to represent the light offering.
