Dear Friend,

Each moment chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” brings about wonderful relationships in life and environment.

Nichiren Daishonin writes: “Volume six of The Annotations on “The Profound Meaning of the Lotus Sutra” states: “Appearance exists only in what is material; nature exists only in what is spiritual. Entity, power, influence, and relation in principle combine both the material and the spiritual. Internal cause and latent effect are purely spiritual; manifest effect exists only in what is material.” The Diamond Scalpel states: “A plant, a tree, a pebble, a speck of dust—each has the Buddha nature, and each is endowed with cause and effect and with the function to manifest and the wisdom to realize its Buddha nature.”” [The Object of Devotion for Observing the Mind Established in the Fifth Five-Hundred-Year Period after the Thus Come One’s Passing] WND I: 39 (p.356) http://www.nichirenlibrary.org

Relationships of happiness chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” extend to all elements of daily life from heartfelt intentions to manifest appearances.

Truly yours,

Tho Tsu 8/11/2016
