To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But gifts made to the Sangha sure will bring Rich harvests to the hungry wakeful spirit-band.
SAUNDEES J) 50 THE HEART OF BUDDHISM So doing shall ye purchase threefold merit, Fulfilling duty to the needy dead ; For by your offerings to the pious Bhikkhus Both they and ye are richly profited.
NOTE All roads lead to Rome ! So the Buddhist is led by many devious paths always back to this cardinal tenet the supreme fruitfulness of offerings to the Sangha. It has become an obsession in modern Buddhi...sm, and is sapping the vigour of Buddhist countries. There are as many as ten thousand Buddhist ' lamas ', or priests, in Lhassa, and one-third of the arable land of Ceylon belongs to the monasteries. This teaching, which is still current among the Brahmans, that gifts to them will benefit the departed, seems to have passed over from Hinduism, in common with much else, to the Buddhists ; and as young India is rebellious against the tyranny of the Brahman, so young Burma and Ceylon are beginning to see in the Sangha a ' Yellow Peril ' !
