“….continuing with the sutra, it is written, receive the rich meal as a donation and show that you are the Happy Field. The expression Happy Field is often used in Buddhism because it is like putting the seed on the ground, just like farming. Put the seed on the ground, give nutrition, sun, water etc. The ground is the symbol of subconsciousness, the seeds, the words of the mantra and all the activity of the farming symbolise the practice...
let all the happiness, all the richness, all the healthiness, spring out from deep inside of the border of the external and internal world. To let people be aware of this is showing how much externally the phenomenon happens from the richness of the subconsciousness. That is what it means to receive the rich meal and show the Happy Farm.
