Vows

 https://nichirenwords.blogspot.com/2016/12/vows.html
Dear Friend,

Each single moment the vastness of life chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” encompasses all phenomena of body, mind and behavior as a single entity of Wonderful Law.

Nichiren Daishonin writes: “Life lasts no longer than the time the exhaling of one breath awaits the drawing of another. At what time, what moment, should we ever allow ourselves to forget the compassionate vow of the Buddha, who declared, “At all times I think to myself: [How can I cause living beings to gain entry into the unsurpassed way and quickly acquire the body of a Buddha]?” On what day or month should we permit ourselves to be without the sutra that says, “[If there are those who hear the Law], then not a one will fail to attain Buddhahood”?” [Questions and Answers about Embracing the Lotus Sutra] WND I: 8 (p. 62) http://www.nichirenlibrary.org

This Buddha way perceiving true self, eternity, purity and happiness moment-to-moment chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” fulfills all vows of the noblest existence.

Truly yours,
