Из Светата будистка Трипитака: Итивутака - Групата на Едните и Четирите - част 2 от 2

This was said by the Lord...”living with Brahma are those families where, within the home, mother and father are respected by their children. Living with the early Devas are those families where, within the home, mother and father are respected by their children. Living with the early teachers are those families where, within the home, mother and father are respected by their children. Living with those worthy of adoration are those families where, within the home, mother and father are respected by their children. 'Brahma,' Bhikkhus, is a term for mother and father. 'Early devas' and 'early teachers' and 'those worthy of veneration' are terms for mother and father. For what reason? Because mother and father are very helpful to their children, they take care of them and bring them up and teach them about the world."
