“You say that your mother, who bore you
In her womb in this life, was kind.
‍But why, then, do you not consider even once
The kindness of other beings who helped you,
Your parents from countless lives in the past?”
‍Shabkar (1781-1851) – Translated by Adam Pearcey (Lotsawa House)

In no particular place.
