The comic "Parental Service, Child Service" is a unique and synergistic blend of inspiring classical Buddhist teachings with an attractive modern appearance, making it an effective means to:
• teach noble qualities from an early age, • strengthen parent-child love,
• preserving the greatness of the Dharma.
This comic consists of two parts:
1. The Sutra on Great Parental Merits That is Hard to Repay Completely and literally from the legendary Sutra in the Holy Tripitaka which very touchingly describes the ten virtues of parents to their children, from the child in the womb to adulthood.
"If you wish to repay your parents' kindness, then for their sake, copy this sutra. This will truly repay them." -Words of the Buddha, Sutras About the Great Merits of Parents That Are Hard to Reply
2. Suttas Concerning Children's Devotion to Parents Thematic excerpts from the Buddhist Suttas from the Tipitaka on the reasons, obligations, and ways in which children repay the services of their parents
become a brahma, teacher, deity, and saint for children, so that in this world and the next, joy will always abound.
"Though prosperous, but not supporting fathers and mothers who are old and their youth has passed, this is the cause of one's downfall."
-Saids of the Buddha, Sutta Nipāta 1.98, Parabhava Sutta
