Hello everyone! I am Buddhist practitioner Fc-one. Today, to save all sentient beings, I will learn from the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva to spread Dharma. I will convince sentient beings to practice Buddhism using my experiences. May Guan Yin Bodhisattva bless me and help me turn my propagation into merits and virtues. I hope my propagation can form positive connections with all sentient beings, transform the right ones extensively, and awaken more beings.
Today, with immense gratitude, I share with you my Buddhist experience. The topic is: Vowing to recite 1000 Little Houses cured my son’s depression
When my child was 13 years old, at the beginning of the second year of middle school, he told me, “Mom, please take me to see a psychologist.” The doctor diagnosed him with depression, and he was admitted to the hospital for treatment. The daily routine at the hospital involved the doctor administering medication. During the 19 days in the hospital, he was constantly agitated.
I remembered Master Lu’s teachings that medication cannot cure depression; it can only control its symptoms. Therefore, I decided to discharge him and practice our Golden Buddhist Practices of Guan Yin Citta Dharma Door to treat his depression. After returning home, he only took medication once on the day of discharge and never took it again.
I knelt before the Buddhist altar and vowed to recite 1,000 Little Houses for my child’s karmic creditors. During the treating period, he often felt irritable, unhappy, and depressed, and had trouble sleeping at night. Especially before festivals like Tomb Sweeping Day (or Qingming Festival, a spring festival in China when graves are put in order and special offerings are made to the dead), Hungry Ghost Festival, and Winter Solstice, his reactions were particularly intense. I knew that the Little Houses were not enough, so I made great vows and continuously transferred merits and virtues to him. Gradually, he got better, and the symptoms of depression decreased. After about 2.5 years, he was basically healed.
After completing the 1,000 Little Houses, I immediately vowed to recite another 500 for his karmic creditors. It’s better to repay more debt than less, to feel at peace. Now, his depression is completely cured. Gratitude to Guan Yin Bodhisattva for blessing my child to overcome depression without medication! Truly, the Bodhisattva’s power is boundless, and the Little Houses are incredibly effective.
Gratitude to Namo Sakyamuni Buddha!
Gratitude to the Greatly Merciful and Greatly Compassionate Guan Yin Bodhisattva!

I also welcome and appreciate critique and correction from my fellow Buddhist practitioners. I, not my fellow Buddhist practitioners, will be responsible for my own karma.

Note 1. Daily recitation and number of Little Houses for depression
Shuohua20121012-24:10
Listener: A fellow practitioner’s mother was diagnosed with depression. How many times should the Great Compassion Mantra, Heart Sutra, and Eighty-Eight Buddhas Great Repentance be recited daily?
Master: Recite the Heart Sutra 49 times, the Great Compassion Mantra 17 times, and start with the Eighty-Eight Buddhas Great Repentance 5 times, then reduce to 3 times once there’s improvement.
Listener: How many Little Houses should be recited for the first set?
Master: Initially 49, then keep reciting 21 at a time. To cure depression, at least 1,000 Little Houses are needed.
Listener: Understood, Master.

许愿千张经文组合，孩子的抑郁症好了
感恩南无释迦牟尼佛！
感恩南无大慈大悲救苦救难广大灵感观世音菩萨摩诃萨！

大家好！我是Fc-one同修。今天我学习观世音菩萨的大慈大悲精神弘法利生，所以现身说法。感恩观世音菩萨慈悲保佑把我的分享转成功德，希望我的分享能够广结善缘，广度有缘，度化更多的有缘众生！
今天，我怀着无比感恩的心情来和大家分享。题目是：许愿千张经文组合，孩子的抑郁症好了
我的孩子13岁初二刚开学的时候，他对我说妈妈你带我去看心理医生吧。医生诊断孩子患上了抑郁症。接着，孩子进行住院治疗。每天医生就是给孩子吃药。孩子在医院的19天里每天都很烦躁。
我记得师父开示过，抑郁症吃药是治不好的，只能控制。于是，我决定接孩子出院，用我们的法宝来治孩子的抑郁症。回家后，孩子只在出院当天吃了一次药，之后再也没有吃过药。
我跪在佛台前向菩萨许愿给孩子的要经者念送1000张经文组合【备注1】。在这期间，孩子经常出现烦躁，不开心，情绪低落，晚上睡不着觉。尤其是在清明节，中元节，冬至这些节日之前孩子的反应尤为明显。我知道是经文组合还不够，随即我许大愿并一直不间断地转功德给孩子。逐渐地，孩子越来越好，抑郁症的症状越来越少。大约到2年半的时候，孩子基本好了。
当1000张组合念完后，我随即又帮孩子许了500张经文组合。宁愿多还债，也不能少还债，这样自己心里感到踏实。现在我孩子的抑郁症全好了。感恩观世音菩萨，保佑我孩子在没有药物的干预下脱离了抑郁症的苦海！真是菩萨法力无边，经文组合灵验无比。
再次感恩南无释迦牟尼佛！感恩南无大慈大悲救苦救难广大灵感观世音菩萨摩诃萨！感恩十方三世一切诸佛菩萨及龙天护法金刚菩萨！感恩恩师慈父！
分享过程中如有不如理不如法之处，请南无释迦牟尼佛慈悲原谅！请南无大慈大悲观世音菩萨慈悲原谅！请十方三世诸佛菩萨及龙天护法菩萨慈悲原谅！请恩师慈父慈悲原谅！
请师兄们批评指正！我自己的业障自己背，不让师兄们背！
