Whoever wants to be rich, should offer food to monks everyday.
Don’t be concerned about fake monks or Phra who aren’t pure in conduct.
Don’t keep thinking whether this is an evil or good monk.
We just adithan our minds as we offer rice using the ladle into the monks’ alms bowl.
Thus, we have gained merit already.
If we intend to do good we will reap results of our goodness.
As for whoever who makes mistakes or does evil, that is their own affair.
It is of no concern to us.
A person with a good heart must encounter Mara and must repay his debts.
Life will always have obstacles.
A person with merit will certainly meet obstacles as well.
It won’t be good all the time.
We may misunderstand and think we have only performed good kamma;
But why do we experience bad things.
The truth is, we are paying off our old past debts.
This is a good thing because it is never good to be in debt.
But if we can pay off the debt completely, we will feel relaxed and at ease.
Not like when in debt, you only experience stress and suffering.
