地蔵菩薩本願経：生者と死者に恩恵をもたらす全5回の４回

“‘When men or women, laden with offenses, who failed to plant good causes die, even they can receive one-seventh of any merit dedicated to them by relatives who do good deeds on their behalf. The other six-sevenths of the merit will return to the living relatives who did the good deeds. It follows that men or women of the present and future who cultivate while they are strong and healthy will receive all portions of the benefit derived.’” So, when you die as a good person like that and you relatives still - just in case you didn’t, or through love - do all these good deeds and on your behalf, then you receive all the merit.
