Meals & Prayers

I was always fascinated by pattu patti and then my mom , who keeps chanting slogams, stotrams or devotional songs,while they were cooking. The reasoning being that let good thoughts permeate the food ( that is being cooked) so that it also influences the person, who eats, in a positive manner .

Our elders also initiated the practice of doing payers before and after our meal.

Prayers are done by us , pre meals to ensure that nothing should happen to us while eating, and post meals, to thank God for us to be in shape after eating the food - especially my mom's :-)))

Our ancestors are really knowledgeable to have foreseen all this !!
