O monks ! on the Stage of this world. persons being related by the deeds of previous births play the roles of father-son, mother-son etc. They retire after staging. the drama.
The Agnisharma of previous birth was. born as Jalinee and Gunsen was born as. her son Sikhee. Each and every nerve of Jalinee was throbing with the idea of vengence. She was herself like a poisono-. ous object. So she offered the poison. There is no wonder about it.
Because there is fire, there is water. Because there is darkness there is the sun. Similarly because there are revenges and hatred there is forgiveness. Only forgiveness, love and peace can burn the Laddus of revenge, hatred and anger. Gunsen. adopted love in the form of Sikhee.
