We should be mindful of the kindness of our parents who raise us. They shower us with great care and love - holding us in their arms, cuddling, and nurturing us. They brave danger for the sake of our safety and well-being.
As we grow up, our parents instruct us on benevolence and propriety, help us groom before we approach our teacher, and have aspirations for us that we be well-versed in the teachings of sages. In every thought, they wish for us to excel and become outstanding. They provide for all our needs, readily sacrificing the family's treasures. Constantly thinking and worrying about us, they sometimes cannot sleep peacefully and even fall sick.
It is the most profound kindness in the world, second to none. Thus the Buddha said, "Nothing in the world can compare to our parents' kindness."
