You fill the bowls with water everyday from left to right, and in the evening pour the water out of the bowls from right to left. Dry them, and then turn them over. Pour the used water on plants, the yard, never throw it down the toilet or sink. You can also use real flowers, incense, and a small vile of perfume, food and something musical in the appropriate bowls. All others you can fill with water. Remember water is always acceptable for any bowl. Food and flowers need to go when they start to decay. You can also use torma’’s which are statues of flowers, incense, and food that are put in the corresponding bowls; you don’t have to take them ever out of the bowls. You see these often in dharma centers. If you are interested in tormas they can be found on the page under torma's.
