Dear Friend,
Calling the name of Buddha nature chanting “Nam
Myoho Renge Kyo,” we reveal good fortune and benefits in this present
form of our life as it is.
Nichiren Daishonin writes: “The entity
of Myoho-renge-kyo in all its splendor—just
what is this entity? If we
hope to answer this, we must say that it is the eight-petaled white
lotus that is the true nature of our own lives. Since this is so, then
the essential nature of our lives is Myoho-renge-kyo. And once we have
come to understand that Myoho-renge-kyo is not the name of a sutra but
is the entity of our own lives, then we will see that our own lives are
in fact the Lotus Sutra, and the Lotus Sutra is none other than the
sacred word preached by the Buddha in order to make manifest the
entities that are our lives. And seeing that, we will know that we
ourselves are Thus Come Ones of original enlightenment, who possess the
three bodies within a single body.” [On the Ten Factors] WND II: 179 (p. 80) http://www.nichirenlibrary.org
Our
prayers chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” are sacred words opening
happiness of freedom, purity and self as a great wave enveloping the
living beings in our environment.
Truly yours,
Tho Tsu 11/11/2016
