Don't assume everyone knows how to eat properly. Observe when people sit down to eat. When a meal is served for five people with five portions of potato, isn't it worth contemplating?
If one person takes two portions, only three remain. Will others have enough? Think about it. Some people never put down their spoon, while others have to wait. Don't these situations occur?
This is eating without mindfulness. It's not about being young or old. #A_person_without_mindfulness_should_be_ashamed of their eating habits. Isn't this worth contemplating?
Some people keep eating even when full, reaching for this and that while rice is finished. Is this knowing how to eat or not?
This is what people actually see. Your eating habits are visible to others. Think about it. We should consider how many people are sitting and how many portions there are.
#Have_you_heard_about_sharing_when_there's_less? #When_there's_plenty,_everyone_can_be_satisfied. When there's plenty, no need to say anything. When there's less, share. Isn't this worth learning? We should observe who's sitting at the table, not just grab food mindlessly.
Some people don't even use a spoon - they pour directly from the pot into their bowl. This happens. That's not knowing how to eat.
It's not about age - young or old. A mindful person, whether young or old, behaves well.
#When_mindfulness_is_lost_everything_is_ruined, understand? This is what we need to study. Isn't it worth contemplating? Study this thoroughly. These are the essential points about knowing how to eat.
Sadhu! Together let us keep the Dharma wheel rolling.
