The Buddha said, “Oh monks, one can never repay two persons". I declare. What two? Mother and father are the two. Even if one should carry about his mother on one shoulder and his father on the other and so doing should live a hundred years;

What else you want in this life ! Who else gets such chance !

What l like about this religion:
In a Buddhist monastery, you don’t pray for yourself you pray for everybody’s peace and happiness and everybody’s wellbeing, unlike any temple or church where you visit to pray for yourself, in this temple you pray for other’s suffering, you pray for those who are suffering from disease and pain.
This is the speciality about this temple, and I like visiting Buddhist temple only because I don’t get a selfish feeling here, I get a chance to pray for everybody’s well-being and suffering.
