8.115

又正法念經云。若有眾生。施人美水。或覆井泉。恐諸毒蛇墮於井中。行人飲之而致苦惱。命終生三箜篌天。受五欲樂。從此命終。若得人身王所愛重。若見病困咽喉出聲。餘命未盡。施其漿飲。或施其財以贖彼命。命終生深水天。如帝釋快樂。從天命終隨業流轉。不墮三塗。得受人身。從生至生不遭病苦。無有惱亂。若有眾生持戒。見比丘僧。以扇布施。令得清涼讀誦經法。命終生風行天。香氣來吹悅樂無比。若有眾生。於河津濟造立橋船。以善心渡持戒人。兼渡餘人。不作眾惡。命終生鬘持天。受五欲樂。命盡人中為王典藏。

The Saddharmasmṛtyupasthāna-sūtra also states: "If sentient beings give delicious water to people or cover wells and springs for fear that poisonous snakes might fall into the well and travelers drinking from it would suffer distress, upon the end of life they will be born in the Heaven of the Three Harps and enjoy the pleasures of the five desires. Dying from there, if they attain a human body, they will be cherished and honored by kings. If one sees someone gravely ill, with sound issuing from their throat and little life remaining, and gives them gruel or drink, or gives wealth to ransom their life, upon the end of life they will be born in the Heaven of Deep Waters, joyful like Śakra. Dying from heaven and transmigrating according to their karma, they will not fall into the three miserable destinies; gaining a human body, from birth to birth they will not encounter the suffering of illness and will have no affliction. If a sentient being who upholds moral discipline sees the bhikṣu saṃgha and gives fans so that they may obtain cool relief to read and recite the scriptures and teachings, upon the end of life they will be born in the Heaven of Wind Travelers, with fragrant breezes blowing upon them, incomparably delighted. If a sentient being constructs bridges and boats at river crossings to ferry across people who uphold moral discipline with a wholesome mind, as well as ferrying other people, without doing any evil, upon the end of life they will be born in the Heaven of Garland Bearers and enjoy the pleasures of the five desires; when their life there ends, in the human realm they will become a keeper of the royal treasury."
