110 Kanthaka’s Great Merit
/

In the sermon today, we’ll learn about a very rare incident. You know, it is impossible for an animal to understand the Dhamma and also very unlikely for them to collect merit. But today we’ll learn how an animal was so fortunate to be born in the heavenly world after death because of our Bodhisatta.
