Compassion

Dear Friend,

The seed of chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” cures the sufferings of all living beings.

Nichiren Daishonin teaches: “Since the Buddha nature and the Buddha body are both none other than the bodies and
minds that constitute living beings, one proceeds immediately to carry out the practice of bowing and paying obeisance to them. Hence the four-character pronouncement that “you are all certain to attain Buddhahood” (chapter twenty) is something that springs from the seed of Nam-myoho-renge-kyo.” [The Record of the Orally Transmitted Teachings]  All the Twenty-eight Chapters of the Lotus Sutra Are Nam-myoho-renge-kyo 20. The Bodhisattva Never Disparaging (p.236) http://www.nichirenlibrary.org

Full potential revealed chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” is found in our behavior of compassion toward each other.

Truly yours,

Tho Tsu  2/09/2016
