three fortune fields (三福田). These are
(1) the reverence field (敬田), which means the Three Jewels;
(2) the kindness field (恩田), which means one’s parents and teachers; and
(3) the compassion field (悲田), which means the poor, the sick, and animals.
By making offerings to any of these three fortune fields, one plants seeds which will yield harvests of fortune in one’s present and future lives.
