Oldest daughter:
Will I be reborn as a person in my next life? Older woman: Come here, I'll show you something. [dropping a palm-full of rice grains onto an upward needle] Older woman: [handing the needle to the girl] Tell me when a grain of rice balances on the tip of the needle. [dropping rice onto the needle for a while] [chuckles] Oldest daughter: That's impossible! Older woman: See, my child? That's how hard it is to be born again as a person. That's why a human life is so valuable. See more » |
