Even if one should carry about ones mother on one shoulder ones - TopicsExpress



          

Even if one should carry about ones mother on one shoulder ones father on the other, and while doing so should live a hundred years, reach the age of a hundred years; and if one should attend to them by anointing them with salves, by massaging, bathing and rubbing their limbs, and they should even void their excrement there—even by that would one not do enough for ones parents, one would not repay them. Even if one were to establish ones parents as the supreme lords and rulers over this earth so rich in the seven treasures, one would not do enough for them, one would not repay them. What is the reason for this? One had not thought to gift a Tricycle print subscription, only $35. —Anguttara Nikaya 2.32 Give the gift of dharma this Mothers Day.
