Buddhist Mealtime Prayer

This food is the gift of the whole universe,
Each morsel is a sacrifice of life,
May I
be worthy to receive it.
May the energy in this food,
Give me the strength,
To
transform my unwholesome qualities
into wholesome ones.

I am grateful for this food, />May I realize the Path of Awakening,
For the sake of all beings.
Namo Amida Buddha.
