5 - Sariputtattherassa Matula Brahmana Vatthu
Mase mase sahassena, yo vajetha satam samam;
ekanca bhivatattanam, muhuttamapi pujaye;
sa yeva pujana seyyo, yance vassasatam hutam.
106: Month after month for a hundred years, one may make offerings (to ordinary people) to the value of a thousand Kahapanas; yet if, only for a moment one pays homage to a bhikkhu who has practised Insight Development, this homage is, indeed, better than a hundred years of making offerings (to ordinary people).
