Care of Dharma (Buddhist) Books:
Dharma books contain sacred teachings and should be treated with respect. When not in use, keep them in a clean place, preferably on a high shelf. Avoid placing them directly on the floor or in places where they might be mistreated. If a Dharma book becomes damaged or worn, consider offering it to a Buddhist centre for proper handling or respectful disposal. By caring for these books, we honour the wisdom they contain and the path they illuminate.
