2941. Taiwan Travels: Filial Piety

Oct 10, 2016

The diabetic father has twice a day insulin injections. No sweet things at all.

At an Alishan bed and breakfast on Oct 10, 2016, he gathered some  sweet things to go with his porridge. His daughter spotted them and admonishes him as he will suffer badly. No sweet ice cream for him and so much deprivation to watch his diet.

This picture of a daughter's admonitions is captured as an essence of filial piety. It is a role reversal now that the diabetic father is very old  and this daughter hawk-eyes what items he gathers for breakfast in this Alishan tour.

Dr Sing Kong Yuen's visit to the Phaung Daw Oo Pagoda, Shan State, Myanmar in September 2016.
As gold leaves have been and are put onto the 5 Buddha images for many years by devotees,  they do not look like Buddha images presently.
