Luke 18:15-17

They brought unto him also infants - On these verses the reader is requested to consult the notes on Matthew 19:13 (note), Matthew 19:14 (note), and on Mark 10:16 (note).

When a spiritual guide (a gooroo) visits his disciple, the latter takes his child to him for his blessing, forcing the head of the child down to the gooroo' s feet, who gives what is called his blessing in some such words as these, Live long! - Be learned! - Be rich!
