If you ever see people “dedicate merits” of a Buddhist chanting, a prayer, a sutra reading, or even a prostration,

that is to get a result where more people have the opportunity to attain enlightenment.

Cultivating merits is always for the sake of others. Get lots of it, and we can all be happy!

In Buddhism, there are four kinds of karma:

— unwholesome karma, created by bad deeds
— wholesome karma, created by good deeds
— neutral karma, created by both good and bad deeds
— merit, created by deeds dedicated to liberating sentient beings from samsara

Merit is the best karma one can do!
