Living On Purpose

Here in the United States, the stores already have Valentine’s Day items out for display. It reminds me to buy another set of “love” bowls. I started this tradition on Valentine’s Day of 2007. It stems from Masaru Emoto’s work with water, and his spotlight in the “What the Bleep Do We Know?” movie. If even the thought vibrations that are projected onto water can change the water’s crystalline appearance, then the same goes for our food. Emoto’s work shows that when thoughts and written words are projected onto water, the shape of the crystal it produces becomes more or less visually beautiful, depending on the thought. The words “you make me sick” produce an asymmetrical shape that’s not so pretty. The words “I love you” produce a very symmetrical crystal as beautiful as a picture-perfect snowflake.

I read of many testimonials from people who had different ideas about how to project “love” into their water. Some people said they would write the word love, or the Japanese symbol for love on their home’s main water dispenser. Some people write “love” on the clear plastic water bottles they carry around. I believe this is similar to praying over your food before you eat it. It’s a way to bless all the people that partake of that water.

So, I noticed that each year at Valentine’s Day, the stores have a different design of flatware in the kitchen department featuring the word “love” on a bowl or plate. I love it. Eating from these bowls helps me to remember to bless my food, and helps me believe the food will be vibrating at the best rate for my body. The first year I bought three plastic love bowls, but they didn’t last the entire year. The next year, I also bought three plastic love bowls and they have lasted, mostly because of my intentions. I hunt them down when one of my children takes it to a new location, I’m more careful in washing it, etc.

These bowls are easy to find during the Valentine’s season and cheap to buy, if you get the plastic ones. Why not start your own tradition? Eat from a Love bowl all year long!
