An experiment on rice

Greetings world!

I've just seen a post on Instagram and got so impressed that wanted to share with you too. It's about an experiment as you can see on the header. The basis of the experiment is grace,compassion,respect, or I can even simply say love. However you define it through the conclusion you reach on!

(You can try at home. 😋)

1st of December
"Get two silicon cups, some rice and water. Put rice and water equally in the cups and cover them with stretch foil. Mark one of the cups to recognize it afterwards."



5th of December
"I observe that the rice in both cups started to change in distinct ways. Odd smell occured in the second (marked) one, and the colour of rice in it darkened. The other group of rice looks completely different too, but turned yellow.”


15th of December
"The difference between colours is much more apparent and notable now. The smell of the first cup is sourish but mellow. However, the other one smells irritating and like kitchen midden."


27th of December
"There's a layer on the water in the first cup. On the contrary, there's not in the marked cup. It smells like hell now.



Removing folios, I opened the cups. Then I analyzed the final situations of two groups of rice. The rice grains kept on the first cup is cracked and faded. The other ones are not so good, as there is slimy, sticky and stretching tissue among the grains of rice.

How did this end up different?

This test has been done several times and the same conclusion has been drawn each time. I heard about it when watching a TEDx Talk, then decided to try it myself. You can surf on the Net and find lots of videos about this experiment. During the experimental process, the only thing you should do is sweet-talk and giving compliments to one of the groups. (For instance, "I love you, you're special for me, you're worthy...") The other group should be mistreated and cursed. Briefly, your manner towards two cups should be different.

As a result, I suddenly remind myself the conventional sentence of seniors: "Pour your grief out to water, then it'll make you relieved." Insults, slanders and negative criticism -even though we don't believe what we say indeed- worsened and disrupted water in such terrible way. What about our harsh internal speech with ourselves? How do we behave ourselves without noticing? People should be aware of and identify the type of their self-talk. What if distressing inner sounds or underestimating attitudes towards ourselves eventually harm our body and wellness? As you can see from the experiment, valued, respected and maintained rice, water, flower, plant (what else you can think of) blooms, while being subjected to offence has no advantage. Remember this all the time: None of your bad feelings or thoughts can be stronger than you, because they exist in you and are already under your control. If you love yourself, you can value and courage yourself too, then you can become a miracle-worker and remove mountains, because love is the biggest, transformative power on the planet."

“Whatever you do, just do it with love.”

Stay with love and bliss 🙏
