สรุปเนื้อหา
In Buddhism, the concept of merit manifests through a symbolic castle structure, divided into three parts: the base formed by alms-giving, the middle by observing precepts, and the top by meditation practice. Each part's size reflects the amount of merit accumulated, illustrating how spiritual practices contribute to one's spiritual growth. Alms-giving contributes to a large base, precept observance gives a smaller middle, and meditation builds the top. This hierarchy emphasizes the significance of different practices in the journey towards enlightenment. The castle's design serves as a metaphor for the merits earned throughout one's life, shaping the spiritual journey of the individual.

ข้อความต้นฉบับในหน้า
If the alms-giving involves contributions made toward the building of a consecrated assembly hall, a shrine hall, a preaching hall, or a Cetiya, this part will be huge.
Part 2: This is the middle part and is formed by the merit of Precepts observing. Its size is smaller than the first part. It is round and consists of many floors, one on top of another.
Part 3: This is the top part of the castle. It is formed by the merit of meditation practice. It is round and consists of many floors. There is a wall surrounding the rectangular path that exists between the floors. If the merit of alms-giving is great, the first part will be huge. If the merit of Precepts observing is great, the second part will be huge. If the merit of meditation practice is great, the third part will be huge. The structure and appearance of the castle depends on the types of merit accumulated during its owner’s human existence.
