BEING CALCULATIVE OVER THE AMOUNT OF MERITS GENERATED WHEN PERFORMING VIRTUOUS DEEDS WILL NOT TAINT OR WIPE OUT MERITORIOUS BLESSINGS ACCRUED
Caller: Let’s say I have 100 dollars in my pocket and plan to utilise them for a meritorious deed. In deciding whether to use it for releasing captive lives or printing of sutra booklets, one may opt for the latter since it generates comparatively greater merits. Master, I would like to know whether such a calculative mentality would taint one’s meritorious blessings or there is completely none to be had?
Master Jun Hong Lu: Not at all. The act encapsulates all the positive energy because here you are thinking, “I want to perform life liberation and print the sutra booklets, but which should I opt for? ” Since all these are positive thoughts, how is it possible for them to expend your meritorious blessings?
