Honour your parents, love and shower care to them...

One’s body is derived from
the flesh and blood of the mother.
The amount of sacrifice involved
in giving birth to a child and rearing
that child with continuous care
and love is beyond description.

The food you eat, the clothes you wear,
the life you lead are all the gifts of your parents.
If you do not honour your parents
who are verily the 'creators' in human form,
how can you learn to honour the Creator in Divine Form?

One’s primary duty, therefore,
is to please one’s parents – only thus
can one’s debt to them be discharged.
Nor is that all, the debt to one’s parents
can also be fully discharged by rendering service to society.
