Due to merit |
I invite others to perform charitable acts because I love merit. Merit is the virtue that will free me from suffering. I need merit because I know I have to be reborn again, and merit will benefit me in the future.
People are born poor because they fail to practice charity in their past lives.
By inviting them to practice charitable acts, they will earn merit and we, too, will also benefit from their merit.
We make merit as a team. Nobody will be left out. And when we are reborn, all of us will come together again as a virtuous community.
We will be free from bad people. Surrounding ourselves with virtuous people ensures that we will not get into trouble. |
