为自己和他人奋斗的美好旅程

克里希南•辛尼亚、德斯瓦里•维拉萨米, 槟城

为他人幸福付出的真诚努力,在克里希南和德斯瓦里的生活中盛放出美丽的福运之花朵。他们一家四口努力实践创价学会永远五指针之“一家和乐的信心”。

克里希南和德斯瓦里是一对热衷于推动当地广宣流布活动的夫妇。这对槟城人是如何遇到这个佛法的呢?他们的旅程总是一帆风顺吗?请仔细阅读,找出答案!

德斯瓦里•维拉萨米和克里希南•辛尼亚夫妇同样在青少年时面临父亲或母亲离世的遭遇,他们都是由兄长抚养长大。

德斯瓦里年少时父母相继离世,大姐帕斯马尼向她介绍日莲佛法,于是开始唱诵南无妙法莲华经

1996年,两人在槟城一家酒店工作相遇。德斯瓦里向克里希南分享日莲佛法,并一起参观SGM槟城会馆(现名为马来西亚创价和平会馆)。

克里希南回顾对创价学会的第一印象时说:“我受到热烈欢迎。SGM成员有着热情的笑容,且很有礼貌。”他首次唱诵南无妙法莲华经30分钟后,感受到从未有过的幸福感。于是,他加入创价学会,开始学习佛法和参加广布活动。

两年后,克里希南敬领了御本尊,再过两年于2000年,他和德斯瓦里决定结为夫妻。两人在槟城会馆举行结婚仪式,是槟州第一对在该会馆举行婚礼的印裔会员。

快要放弃时,却梦想成真!

婚后,两人积极投入广布活动,包括活跃在阿玛拉组(印裔会员的组别,主要以淡米尔语开展活动)。他们虽然年轻、健全,婚后两年却难受孕;即便成功受孕,也未能顺利生产。德斯瓦里经历两次流产,她回忆时说:“那是非常痛苦以至崩溃的经历。”

然而,他们没有哀叹命运坎坷,反而更虔诚地祈愿,并以真诚的对话鼓励彼此和他人。夫妇俩从致力于帮助他人的行动中,理解了经历苦难的意义。

时光荏苒,当德斯瓦里开始接受自己或许永远无法成为母亲时,发生了不可思议的事!

在结婚第12年的2012年,他俩喜获麒儿——女儿名叫德什维尼。两年后,他们再添麟儿德什万。

池田先生曾教导:“在弘扬日莲佛法上,抱持‘想救人’‘想让对方知道妙法的美好’的一念付诸行动,就会涌现伟大的福德。”为他人幸福付出的真诚努力,在他们的生活中盛放出美丽的福运之花朵。他们一家四口努力实践创价学会永远五指针之“一家和乐的信心”。

2016年5月,为筹备槟城分会睦邻亲善友好晚会,克里希南担任阿玛拉组文化表演的协调者,德斯瓦里则是舞蹈编导。这期间,他们必须兼顾日常工作、广布活动及舞蹈排练。不巧,孩子也在这时发高烧住院。虽然孩子在关键时刻生病,但他们的信念不受动摇,并持续以坚定不移的心彻底祈愿。

最终,活动的圆满完成,使他们更笃定信心,孩子们也完全康复。

遭受沉重打击

和许多人一样,2019年新冠疫情打乱了他们的生活。几年前,德斯瓦里就离开了职场,由克里希南承担家庭经济。在酒店工作的克里希南即使收到丰厚的小费,也难有积蓄,经常为偿还各种债务挣扎不已。

行动管制令实施后,酒店业深受影响,导致克里希南的收入减少,家庭开始面临经济困难。最令他懊恼的是,就职以来从未有过不良记录,但却由于工作上的一个误解导致他失去了工作。尽管深受打击,他仍坚持在隔天的阿玛拉组周年纪念会议担任司仪,为了会议的成功而全力以赴。

为了维持收支平衡,德斯瓦里只好重回职场。庆幸的是,德斯瓦里很快在一家日托中心找到工作,而克里希南也暂时成为这家日托中心载送孩子的司机。夫妇同心协力,并不懈地投入广布活动,尽力为会员们奉献。

全新开始,全新挑战

两个月后,德斯瓦里成为一家工厂里的食堂主管,一天要为两千多名工人提供餐饮服务。佳节期间,因人员短缺,工作量大幅增加。虽然压力很大,但德斯瓦里通过唱诵大量题目,改变心态,跨越一切挑战,把食堂打理得很好,还获得老板的赞扬。工作六个月后,他获得晋升机会,成为食堂经理。德斯瓦里目前的薪金远远超出以前的收入,也得以偿还债务。

现实生活中的苦与乐

多年来,他俩已向超过15人介绍日莲佛法。即使在新冠病毒大流行期间,他们也帮助槟城阿玛拉组策行线上会议。虽然一开始参加人数很少,但经过大家的努力,槟城阿玛拉组周年纪念会议的人数超过了百人。

夫妇俩喜欢的一节御书:“痛苦时就感到痛苦,快乐时就觉得快乐,是苦是乐都如实地接受,并一直唱念南无妙法莲华经吧。”(御书文白Ⅱ,320页,白话)德斯瓦里感慨地说:“在修行佛法前,我常把发生在身上的事归咎他人。如今,我对自己的人生 负全责。”克里希南接着说:“我曾是一个脾气暴躁的人,现在我可以好好控制情绪,积极看待事情。”

夫妇决心手牵手、肩并肩,继续着他们为自己和他人奋斗的美好旅程。

摘自2022年5月份《宇宙

Siow Yoon Kee had a long-standing ambition to become a doctor since his secondary school days. However, his motivation to save lives had not taken deep root.

During his college years, he battled gastrointestinal diseases and sought medical treatment from numerous doctors but to no avail. Coupled with a demanding schedule, he experienced immense stress and despair, even contemplating ending his life. Eventually, through the power of chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo (daimoku), he realised that his illness was a consequence of an irregular lifestyle, and acknowledged his own arrogance and negligence in his faith. This profound experience led to a shift in his perspective on the purpose of becoming a doctor.

After graduating, he was filled with joy and excitement on his first day of work, being addressed as a doctor. However, that excitement didn’t last. The overwhelming workload, long hours, and the constant fear of being reprimanded for mistakes quickly diminished his initial joy. As a result, the tough realities of the job made him less motivated and less excited about the work he had to do.

Yoon Kee reflected, “I would feel annoyed by patients, especially during night shifts when they complained of pain. I would question them with a skeptical tone. It seemed like I had become a terrible doctor, losing my passion for the job. During those unpleasant days, it was through repeatedly chanting the daimoku that I gradually reflected on my own attitude.”

“I recall a training session for the Beacon Group, a medical group within Soka Gakkai Malaysia, where our seniors encouraged us to face the Gohonzon with our most authentic selves. Inspired by their guidance, I wholeheartedly put it into practice and truly felt the profound joy that daimoku brings. Chanting the daimoku is indeed the greatest of all joys.”

Doctor Siow Yoon Kee

The power of daimoku awakened a profound sense of compassion in Yoon Kee, inspiring him to strive in his human revolution and towards becoming a doctor who could genuinely listen to his patients’ voices.

“After a change in mindset, it was incredible how I found myself wanting to treat patients like family and making an effort to truly listen to their words. My colleagues also noticed that I was more energetic and confident.”

However, transformation takes time and effort. Yoon Kee realised that the biggest hurdle for a doctor is their own sense of superiority. Therefore, his aim was to cultivate resilience and to serve selflessly without seeking personal gain. With the goal of becoming a skilled listener, step by step he made steady progress.

“Once, there was a patient in the final stages of cancer who told me he felt hungry and wanted something to eat. Although I was busy with work, I took a couple of minutes to feed the patient before tending to other patients and resuming my duties. Sadly, the patient passed away thirty minutes later. It was a moment that made me appreciate the power and significance of chanting daimoku, as it enabled me to be there at a crucial time and fulfill the patient’s last wish.

“On another occasion, there was a patient who complained to me, pointing out, “You see, my hands are still swollen, and the medication you prescribed is not effective!” In that moment, I patiently reassured the patient, emphasizing the importance of trusting in the medication’s effectiveness. I assured them that if they maintained their belief, they would experience improvement quickly. As a result, after a few days, the patient’s hand recovered, and the swelling subsided.”

Yoon Kee’s transformation became increasingly apparent over time. Through the practice of faith, he has been forged into becoming a doctor with a sense of mission who confronts the challenges of society with determination. While he humbly recognizes his own areas for growth, he consistently emphasises his resolute dedication to becoming a proficient listener and continuously improving himself.
