From the timeless traditions of the auspicious
seventh lunar month, we know,
That among the four kinds of gratitude, the one towards one's parents is foremost.
Maudgalyayana once asked for guidance, and the
Buddha compassionately revealed,
The method for delivering his mother from the
endless suffering endured since time immemorial.
Ultimately, the salvation came from the power of the Sangha members assembled,
Along with the prouidence of those with the Three Disciplines and No Outflows.
With these words, I urge the Buddhists of the Ten Directions,
To protect the proper Dharma so it can be shared with all future generations.

Theft Is the seed of ruin, of poverty, of rebirth in starvation.

Give and benefit others if you yearn for tranquility.
