Verse 106:
Month after month for a hundred years,
one may make offerings (to ordinary people)
to the value of a thousand Kahapanas;
yet if, only for a moment
one pays homage to a Bhikkhu (monk)
who has practised Insight Development,
this homage is, indeed, better than
a hundred years of making offerings (to ordinary worldling people)
Comment: There is an annual 'Alms offering to the Sangha' event at Bright Hill Monastary on 1st Jan (New Year's Day)
