Dear Friend,
At any time and place chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo,” the sound permeating the environment brings benefit to all.
Nichiren
Daishonin writes: “When we chant Myoho-renge-kyo, the Thus Come
One of
the essential nature of our minds becomes manifest, and the sounds that
reach the ears of others wipe out their offenses accumulated over
countless asamkhya kalpas. When they respond with joy even for a moment,
they attain Buddhahood in their present form. Even though they may not
believe this, the seed has been planted, it is maturing, and through it
they will invariably attain Buddhahood.” [The Doctrines of Three
Thousand Realms] WND II: 180 (p.87) http://www.nichirenlibrary.org
In
the midst of the distractions of daily life chanting “Nam Myoho Renge
Kyo,” the sound of the Wonderful Law opens the ears of others to this
moment of joy.
Truly yours,
Tho Tsu 10/26/2016
