English | Sharing by Kon Teck Hin, Daxtor
In this episode, Daxtor shares how practising Nichiren Daishonin's Buddhism transformed him from the inside out. After receiving shakubuku from his colleague Jack Koh, Daxtor committed himself to sincere daily practice - going for morning gongyo daily at Kaimyo-in, volunteering as a taiko drummer and usher, and steadily letting go of his old habits.
Within a year, his transformation was so striking that even his strict deputy general manager praised him for the very first time. Now five years into his practice, Daxtor has shakubuku-ed his parents and several friends, and continues to encourage those around him with the same sincerity that Jack once showed him. His story is a heartfelt reminder that when we find the courage to change ourselves, the people and world around us will change too.
