Embracing belief moment-to-moment chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” opening wonderful results in conditions of daily life reveals true happiness.
Nichiren Daishonin teaches: “This one
word “believe” means to believe in the principle of ordinary people being able to manifest their original states as revealed in the “Life Span” chapter. And the word “understand” means to understand the actual fact of the Buddha manifesting his original state [as revealed in the “Life Span” chapter]. One can believe and understand in a moment the actual fact and principle of manifesting the original state [as revealed in the “Life Span” chapter]. “A moment” means a moment of faith eternally inherent in life. A person who has this kind of faith and understanding will gain benefits that are “without limit or measure.” Where there is belief or faith, there is understanding, and where there is understanding, there will be faith. However, it is faith that makes it absolutely certain that one will attain Buddhahood. Now Nichiren and his followers, who chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, are certain of such attainment.” [Chapter Seventeen: Distinctions in Benefits] The Record of the Orally Transmitted Teachings (p. 144) http://www.nichirenlibrary.org
Within the smallest point of each moment chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” original state of Buddha nature reveals our freedom and happiness.
