this photo reminds me of a moment of when I was in a temple in japan, the aviary a huge huge aviary 100 times the size of the kechara aviaries had peacocks living in them next to them was a small cage with a monkey in it to touch the monkey foot one needed to climb high on a rock and and balance precariously it has often occurred to me who was more happy the monkey that was touched or the owner of the hand that touched the monkeys foot ?

Rejoice to them receiving the initiation .Sponsoring the Dharma, which refers to supporting the teachings and practices of Buddhism, is considered a meritorious act in Buddhism.
