Unattached to all worldly possession, Saving and freeing lives- a habitual action; These result in blessings in abundance: A long life and rebirth in heaven And escaping from dangers is so common. Practicing virtues will good fortune make, But don't expect for nor rewards wait. What you do and give, is what you will get. Not expecting dues from virtuous acts, The law of Karma justly takes effect.
Although when I am in need, let me wish that others will have plenty. Although when I am sick and weak, may I wish that others are healthy. When suffering comes to me, let me accept it with peace.
When one do good and yet receive bad result, one should quickly repent one's evil actions of one's past life. One should not start to blame on others or to criticize, saying doing good deeds will not bring good results.
If in this life one indulges in unwholesome sexual acts and adultery, in the next life one will be reborn as a sparrow, a pigeon, a mandarin duck, etc. or as an animal. (From the Sutra of Earth store Bodhisattva).
Our 6 roots: Eye, ear, nose, tongue, body and mind, create and result in various good and bad karma. For e.g: someone may be born rich but has a crooked mouth.
