- Namo tassa bhagavato arahato sammā-sambuddhassa -
As a king intent on battle
would hire a youth
in whom there are
archery skills,
persistence,
& strength,
and not, on the basis of birth,
a coward;
so, too, you should honor
a person of noble conduct, wise,
in whom are established
composure
& patience,
even though
his birth may be lowly.
Let donors build
pleasant hermitages
and there invite the learned to stay.
Let them make reservoirs
in dry forests
and walking paths
where it's rough.
Give even if only the donor side is purified, that would be of great merits. Not to speak if purified in both ways.
But since Dhamma is hard to "sell" if straight forward and real Dana is more then seldom in this world and not useable for trade undertakings, it runs more and more straight upward, where ever one might look.
