Struggles

Dear Friend,

The wisdom of Buddha mind, the heart of Buddha compassion and behavior of Buddha actions chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” reveals original Buddha nature in our ordinary moments of daily life.

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 each single instant of our struggles to sincerely cultivate happiness for self and others together as we are, now.

Truly yours,

Tho Tsu 12/03/2017
