Accepting and Listening

Dear Friend,

Magnanimous compassion of Buddha nature opens and reveals happiness chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” hearing the Wonderful Law.

Nichiren Daishonin writes: “Once one has heard the sutra teaching that good and
evil are not two, that correct and erroneous are as one, then one gains inner enlightenment and attains Buddhahood. Therefore this is called the attainment of Buddhahood in one’s present form. And because one gains enlightenment in a single lifetime, it is called perfect enlightenment in one lifetime. Though there may be persons who are unaware of the principle involved, if they chant the daimoku, they will experience the joy that can only be shared between Buddhas. This is what the sutra means when it says, “I will surely rejoice and so will the other Buddhas.”” [The Doctrine of Three Thousand Realms in a Single Moment of Life] WND II: 180 (p. 89) http://www.nichirenlibrary.org/

Accepting and listening with joy to the daimoku moment-to-moment chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” we share the company of all Buddhas.

Truly yours,

Tho Tsu 3/06/2016
