When we aren’t respectful, it’s not just something that affects us in this life, but it can also have bad consequences in the future as well.
How do we make offerings in a respectful way? It is important that as much as we have the desire to collect merits by offering things, we should do so in a respectful manner. If not, there could be dangerous consequences. Hence, let us learn the ways that offerings should be made through the Buddha’s teachings and as disciples of the Buddha may we have the ability to follow these ways and gain enormous merits.
Our beloved parents, if treated respectfully will bring great merit to us. However, if you disrespect them, it will generate very bad karma.
