Answer: For instance, if we see a damaged road and spend our time, effort, and money to repair it, making it safer and more convenient for people to travel, we gain positive karma. Thanks to this good karma, our future endeavours will go smoothly and easily, we will experience good fortune, avoid traffic accidents, and easily acquire vehicles.

Another example is if we notice poor students lacking books and sometimes going to school hungry. If we help by giving them money for books and providing food, enabling them to study well, we gain positive karma. Due to this merit, we will excel in our studies, enjoy a prosperous family life, and have a successful career.

If we frequently encourage people to love and help each other, we will not be lonely. We will always be surrounded by laughter and have many beloved people around us when we pass away. Conversely, if we often speak ill of others, causing suspicion and estrangement among people, we will eventually face the karma of loneliness, with no one wanting to be near us, and we may die alone without anyone knowing.

If we admire and respect good people, praise their virtues, and support them, we will naturally develop those good qualities by ourselves without much effort. Conversely, if we envy, criticize, and hinder good people, our minds will become corrupted by negative thoughts, making us prone to wrongdoing and condemned by society.
