Atma didn't talk on it, but Nyom
Chanroth possible kept the 100-day ceremony (usual tradition and normally big fest)
sillently today, yesterday spending a day organising vegetables and things to cook himself (syaying alone at home this days) a meal to give in rememberance of his mother, as gift toward her, today here.
"May you not forget", he was encouraged, and "no need to make big fests" as well, some weeks ago, and shortly by thought again.
In this days, especially, she would have stand on the street waiting daily to do giving, leading their children and grand-children to do merits as well and every morning her husband, if she didn't cook by herself, needed to drive out to timely buy food. Asking after health and supply of medicine for Atma, for monks... for the Sangha, was her second self-taken duty to look after.
Of course such a drive missing in a village now makes much change and the focus this year isn't to do merits but the clear and register land or build fasilities to raise cattles at large...
As Nyom
Chanroth is often stingy in sharing his highest and best merits, Atma wishes all to be able to take part on circumstances all may face sooner or later and how good such can be mastered.
Maybe also Nyom
Sophorn , having also certain Nissaya to Nyom and Nyom Srei, might find some encouragements for him directly by contact as well.
Yathā vārivahā pūrā
Paripūrenti sāgaraṃ
Evameva ito dinnaṃ
Petānaṃ upakappati
Icchitaṃ patthitaṃ tumhaṃ
Khippameva samijjhatu
Sabbe pūrentu saṅkappā
Cando paṇṇaraso yathā
Maṇi jotiraso yathā.
Just as rivers full of water
fill the ocean full,
Even so does that here given
benefit the dead (the hungry shades).
May whatever you wish or want quickly come to be,
May all your aspirations be fulfilled,
as the moon on the fifteenth (full moon) day,
or as a radiant, bright gem.
Sabbītiyo vivajjantu
Sabba-rogo vinassatu
Mā te bhavatvantarāyo
Sukhī dīghāyuko bhava
Abhivādana-sīlissa
Niccaṃ vuḍḍhāpacāyino
Cattāro dhammā vaḍḍhanti
Āyu vaṇṇo sukhaṃ, balaṃ.
May all distresses be averted,
may every disease be destroyed,
May there be no dangers for you,
May you be happy & live long.
For one of respectful nature who
constantly honors the worthy,
Four qualities increase:
long life, beauty, happiness, strength.
