Responding

Dear Friend,

Exercising faith chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” we manifest the true aspect of phenomena revealing joy in all activities of daily life.

Nichiren Daishonin teaches: “Broadly speaking, “to respond” may be
regarded as another name for faith. To respond means simply to have the mind of faith. That is why it is stated in the second volume of the Lotus Sutra, “It is because they have faith in the Buddha’s words / that they can comply with this sutra, / not because of any wisdom of their own” (chapter three, Simile and Parable).” [The Record of the Orally Transmitted Teachings] Chapter Eighteen: The Benefits of Responding with Joy (p. 147) www.nichirenlibrary.org

The mind of faith chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” opens life of freedom, happiness, purity and true self.

Truly yours,

Tho Tsu 5/01/2016
