Title : Merit in the Water.
ชื่อภาพ : บุญกลางน้ำ

Mother and daughter paddled from their house nearby to offer alms to monks who paddled out to receive alms from nearby temples.

Making merit with monks is a tradition that has been going on for more than 2500 years since the emergence of Buddhism in northern India.

At least 5 precepts persistence, almsgiving in Buddhism or in society. These are the factor that causes human beings to be born a deva filled with divine treasures in the heavens. And if practicing Vipassana meditation. This will encourage to create 'consciousness' to help the practitioner's true mind in eliminating the defiling thoughts, preventing them from domineering or dyeing into the soul. The Buddha has found out that before the death of all human beings, what determines the birth in a new life to be born are the last 5 thoughts. Which is one of the thoughts that our true mind has accepted. If we think in a bad way, hell or being an animal can be hoped for, such as demons, beasts, etc. If we think of merit that we have made. Then our souls will be brought to be born in heaven or even reincarnated as better and more moral human beings in the next life. But if the last state is that the mind does not depend on any thoughts, not clinging to merits or sins, and be able to cut off all 10 biggest defilements. That person's true mind will liberate to Nibbana, no born, no old, no sick, no dying eternity, transcending time and all things.

What is called "consciousness" will be the main force like a personal bodyguard to help ward off all bad thoughts during the last moments of life. Make the mind choose whether to hold on to the merits that have been done, or not cling to anything else in order to liberate our true mind to nirvana
