Evoking our precious Buddha nature in daily life of earthly desires chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” we exercise power of endurance advancing beyond delusions.
Nichiren Daishonin teaches: “Point Six,
regarding the passage “Beyond these immeasurable, boundless hundreds, thousands, ten thousands, millions of asamkhya worlds there is a land named sahā, and in it a Buddha named Shakyamuni.” The Record of the Orally Transmitted Teachings says: The bodhisattvas of the essential teaching employing the power of great forbearance to proclaim and propagate Myoho-renge-kyo is known as sahā. Forbearance is the Land of Eternally Tranquil Light. This mind of forbearance is called Shakyamuni Buddha. Sahā means a world in which one must exercise forbearance and learn to endure.” [The Record of the Orally Transmitted Teachings] Chapter Twenty-one: Supernatural Powers of the Thus Come One (p. 169) http://www.nichirenlibrary.org
Forbearing past our weakest point of suffering chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” we reveal original diamond brilliance of Buddha nature moment-to-moment.
