Reading Nichiren Daishonin’s writing chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” our devotion and determination to reveal Buddha nature emerges as certain as the sun rising each morning.
Nichiren Daishonin writes: ““Therefore,
when discoursing on Buddhist teachings, one should keep in mind the goals aimed at by the four ranks of sages and not become unduly concerned with the particular doctrines or principles of logic alone. Also, when assessing the doctrinal tenets of other schools, one should examine them in the light of the tenets of one’s own school and judge their correctness accordingly. But this must not be done in a hard-headed or hostile manner. (On the whole, the other schools in most cases hold doctrines that pertain to the first three of the four teachings and seldom touch upon the principles of the perfect teaching.)”” [The Unanimous Declaration by the Buddhas of the Three Existences regarding the Classification of the Teachings and Which Are to Be Abandoned and Which Upheld] WND II: 315 (p.858) http://www.nichirenlibrary.org
Giving full expression chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” through our interactions with others is joyful and filled with purpose and value.
