English | Sharing by Esther Teo

In this episode, Esther Teo shares how she first took faith in Nichiren Daishonin's Buddhism 30 years ago, when her family suffered major losses from financial investments.

Since then, her family has experienced a gradual, mystical improvement in their lives.

Guided by her three pillars of conviction, courage, and compassion, Esther has dedicated herself to sharing the practice of Nichiren Daishonin's Buddhism with others. She recounts her shakubuku of Irene, who was grappling with her son's health condition, and who, through sincere practice, received benefits from the Gohonzon.

Irene's faith has since brought her family closer to the Gohonzon, with her husband Simon now visiting Kaimyo-in too. Esther's story is a warm reminder to never give up when sharing the practice, as the right timing will always manifest itself.

在这一集中,张宝风(Esther Teo)分享了自己在三十年前如何开始信奉日莲大圣人佛法。当时,她的家人因投资失败而遭受了巨大的经济损失。

开始修行后,她们一家人的生活发生了不可思议的转变,生活逐渐地改善。

以确信、勇气与慈悲作为三大方针,Esther 全心投入于向身边的人分享日莲大圣人的佛法。她在本集中分享了折伏 Irene 的经历。当时,Irene 正为儿子的健康状况而深受困扰。在真诚地修行之后,Irene 从御本尊那获得了功德。

如今,Irene 的信心拉近了她的家人与御本尊之间的距离。她的丈夫 Simon 也开始出席開妙院的活动。Esther 的故事提醒了我们,在折伏的道路上,千万不要轻易放弃,因为最佳的时机终究还是会显现的。
