Parents’ love is great

Seen from this point of view, we are greatly indebted first to our parents. But have you ever seen a parent who would ask you to repay that debt? There is no way possible for us to repay the debts we have to our parents.
What does the mother do after childbirth? She has to change the diapers. And if a rash appears, she has to medicate it. If you are sick, your mother stays by your bedside, just caring for you and nursing you. If you were at the brink of death, she would pray that she might die in place of you. That's parental love. Have you ever thought of that? Your parents are a symbol of sacrifice for you. There's no comparison to the parental love toward you.
Every morning your mother is anxious to get you on the way to school before it is late, and prays for you and begs you to be a nice boy, a nice girl, to behave yourself well at school, and be a good pupil. She warns you against misconduct and misbehavior and things like that. Every moment of her life, she is anxious for you.
As time goes by, you will grow bigger and bigger, reaching adulthood, but even when you are in the university, she won't cease to care. Is there any parent who would want to be indebted to their children? No. Until the time of their death, they want to care for their children, not thinking of any debt. They are the greatest of all benefactors. So, in terms of love, you are, have been, and are going to be indebted to your parents until your death.
Suppose your parents are somewhere around 100 years old, and you are 80 years old. Still your parents think that you are their children. We often hear this story: 100- year-old parents, if their 80-year-old son is going out driving in the car, would say, "Be careful driving the car. " So, that love lasts for eternity, without changing.
I say for eternity because, even though they pass away into the other world, they will keep loving you and caring for you.
When I think of this, I must let you know that the greatest of all loves is parental love. Suppose there's a young mother who died leaving a young baby. Would you think the mother will have an easy heart and say, "Well, I'm glad I'm relieved from the pain, here in the spirit world?" Or, would she love the baby and care for her all the more? Her love, in the spirit world, toward the orphaned child is more than she felt on Earth. In that case, the baby must know that she's being cared for by her mother, to a larger and higher degree. Your parents, wherever they are, are those to whom you must be grateful.
There's no way possible for us to repay the debt to our parents. In a word, you are all indebted to your parents. You are going to be indebted to them all through eternity. So you must be loving children to them. If you love your parents one-tenth of their love towards you, then you are 90 percent indebted to them.
