Page 77 - Islam and Buddhism

Those who are not priests never-
theless assist priests in the col-
lection of offerings, believing that
they will gain merits for a future
life. Buddhist priests walk the
streets early in the mornings,
with bowls in their hands, accept-
ing offerings from the people. But
this superstitious practice, done
in the name of worship will do
them no good in this world or the
next, unless God wills otherwise.
