The fully awakened mind of “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” illuminates and shines through the Dharma body of “Nam Myoho renge Kyo” manifesting as great compassion for all living beings in our ordinary interactions of sharing the benefit of chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” with others.
Nichiren Daishonin teaches: “The
Record of the Orally Transmitted Teachings says: This chapter as a whole deals with the true attainment in kuon. Kuon means something that was not worked for, that was not improved upon, but that exists just as it always has. Because we are speaking here of the Buddha eternally endowed with the three bodies, it is not a question of something attained for the first time at a certain time, or of something that was worked for. This is not the kind of Buddhahood that is adorned with the thirty-two features and eighty characteristics, or that needs to be improved on in any way. Because this is the eternally abiding Buddha in his original state, he exists just as he always has. This is what is meant by kuon. Kuon is Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, and “true attainment” means awakening to the fact that one is eternally endowed with the three bodies.” [The Record of the Orally Transmitted Teachings] Chapter Sixteen: The Life Span of the Thus Come One| http://www.nichirenlibrary.org
As natural as the sun rising, we all benefit equally just as we are from the practice of chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” and seeing the suffering of others, we naturally share the great benefit of chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo.”
