Next, we should also throw our five limbs to the ground on behalf of our parents' kindness in nurturing and raising us. Carrying us in their arms and suckling us, their love and esteem were deep. They would rather endanger their own bodies than fail to establish their children safely. When we grew up, they instructed us in benevolence and etiquette, washed their hands to seek teachers, wishing that we master the scriptures and their meanings, never forgetting for a moment the hope that we would equal the ranks of men. Whatever provisions were needed, they did not begrudge the family's treasures. Thinking of us, their worries tied them into knots, sometimes even making them ill; lying down, their mats were uneasy, constantly missing their children. The weight of their kindness under heaven is truly without equal in the world. Therefore, the Buddha said: 'Under heaven, no kindness surpasses that of parents.' For those who have renounced the family, if they have not yet attained the Way, let them only apply themselves diligently to their studies and never abandon doing good; by accumulating virtue unceasingly, they will certainly be able to repay their kindness. Together, with utmost sincerity and an equal sense of poignant urgency, with our five limbs touching the ground, let each on behalf of the parents who gave us birth through lives, and all relations and kin through successive kalpas since we first possessed a conscious spirit down to today, take refuge in the Great Compassionate Father of the World. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 8.33](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909.8.33) - [Next: 8.35](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909.8.35) - [Up: 8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909.8) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909~en-mt.8.34) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909.8.34](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909.8.34) · Pramāṇa
