Buddhist Thoughts of The Day

There is no greater happiness for human beings than chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo. The sutra says, "The people there [in my land] are happy and at ease. "Happy and at ease" here means the joy derived from the Law. You are obviously included among the "people," and "there" indicates the entire world, which includes Japan. "Happy and at ease" means to know that our lives--both our bodies and minds, ourselves and our surroundings--are the entities of ichinen sanzen and the Buddha of absolute freedom. There is no greater happiness than having faith in the Lotus Sutra. It promises us "peace and security in this life and good circumstances in the next. Never let life's hardships disturb you. After all, no one can avoid problems, not even saints or sages. (HAPPINESS IN THIS WORLD, Major Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol 1, p 161)
