火燒功德林 - What can destroy your merits in a flash?

Roughly translated, 火燒功德林 is the “Fire that burns the forest of merits”.

What fire can do this?
瞋心
That of aversion, ill will or simply put anger - one of the three poisons.

Why is the impact so great?

如得法師 gives his discourse

remember to myself, it is just not worth it to get angry!

At 3:37, 如得法师 mentioned that wrong view has the same effect, in which there is absolutely no foundation for your merits to exist or accumulated. :scream:
