Offering Bowls

 Buddhist offering bowls are often made from metal. Water offerings (also known as 'yonchap' in Tibetan) are amongst the most common forms of offering at Buddhist shrines.

In Buddhism, symbolic offerings are made to the Triple Gem, giving rise to contemplative gratitude and inspiration. Typical material offerings involve simple objects such as a lit candle or oil lamp, burning incense, flowers, food, fruit, water or drinks.
