Treasures

Dear Friend,

Opening original Buddha nature chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” ordinary moments of daily life are great treasures of happiness.

Nichiren Daishonin teaches: “Speaking of the chapter as a whole, the idea of gradually overcoming illusions is not the ultimate meaning of the “Life Span” chapter. You should understand that the ultimate meaning of this chapter is that ordinary mortals, just as they are in their original states of being, are Buddhas. And if you ask what is the action or practice carried out by the Buddha eternally endowed with the three bodies, it is Nam-myoho-renge-kyo.” [The Record of the Orally Transmitted Teachings] Chapter Sixteen: The Life Span of the Thus Come One (p.125) http://www.nichirenlibrary.org

Buddha nature manifests chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” in the substance of our efforts sincerely cultivating happiness for self and others.

Truly yours,

Tho Tsu 12/03/2016
