Awakening to our original happiness is not a deferred reward for another existence, but emerges simultaneously chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” in each moment of living our daily life.
Nichiren Daishonin writes: “If one
should discard this freely exercised practice and instead allow one’s mind to dwell in a state of distorted thinking marked by ignorance and delusion, thoughts without substance, turning one’s back on the teaching and instruction handed down from the Buddhas of the three existences, then for all time one will merely move from darkness into darkness, always, alas, alas, at variance with the Law of the Buddha! But now if one will only cast aside such thinking, correct one’s outlook, and return to a state of enlightenment, then one will realize that the attainment of Buddhahood in one’s present form is to be found nowhere outside one’s own body.” [The Unanimous Declaration by the Buddhas of the Three Existences regarding the Classification of the Teachings and Which Are to Be Abandoned and Which Upheld] WND II: 315 (p. 852-853) http://www.nichirenlibrary.org
We immediately open our highest life condition of universal Buddha nature chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” directly experiencing brilliance of heart and mind in life and environment.
