《佛说布施经》云:供养三宝可得五种利益:身相端庄,气力增盛,寿命延长,快乐安稳,成就辩才。

“He who reveres those worthy of reverence, the Buddhas and their disciples, who have transcended all obstacles and passed beyond the reach of sorrow and lamentation – he who reveres such peaceful and fearless ones, his merit none can compute by any measure.” (Dhammapada v195- 196)
