Dear Friend,
We’ve
always had immeasurable joy within our life despite delusions and
distractions chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” reveals immediate benefit of
the Buddha nature.
Nichiren Daishonin writes: “For this reason,
the Great Teacher Miao-lo, in speaking of persons who rejoice on hearing
word of the sutra passed along by fifty persons in succession, states:
“Probably those who are mistaken in their understanding fail to realize
how great is the benefit gained even by a beginner [in the practice of
the Lotus Sutra]. They assume that benefit is reserved for those who are
far advanced in practice and disparage beginners. Therefore, the sutra
here demonstrates its power by revealing that though their practice is
shallow, the benefit that results is profound indeed.”” [On Reciting the
Daimoku of the Lotus Sutra] WND II: 186 (p. 237) http://www.nichirenlibrary.org
Rather
than spending this wonderful moment of being pursuing provisional mind,
we reflect the Buddha nature of original happiness chanting “Nam Myoho
Renge Kyo.”
Truly yours,
Tho Tsu 10/30/2016
