About This Quote
Due to your merit karma, your efforts will bring you success and when the merit karma is expended, your efforts will bring in losses. The best way to understand the concept behind this quote is to think of it in terms of money. You can either earn money or lose money. Some people are always trying to earn money by working hard at their jobs. However, if they are not careful, they can lose money by doing something that may not be in their best interest.
This is an example of merit karma. Your actions are governed by karma. The more good you do, the more good you will get in return.
This is why it is important to try to do as much good as possible; not just for yourself but for those around you as well. When it comes time for you to pay back those who have helped you, that's another story altogether.
