This will bring you to another Nichiren Shoshu site's excellent Introduction Page Lectures By Nichiren Shoshu High Priest Nikken Shonin Lectures by Nikken Shonin, 67th High Priest "Those who believe in the Lotus Sutra are as if in winter, which never fails to turn into spring. Never have I seen or heard of winter turning into autumn. Nor have I ever heard of any believer in the Lotus Sutra who remained a common mortal. A passage from the sutra reads,"Among those who hear of this Law, there is not one who shall not attain Buddhahood."

This teaching has never been spread before. Here in the world, in all the 2,225 years since the passing of the Buddha, not a single person chanted it. Nichiren alone, without sparing his voice, now chants Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, Nam-myoho-renge-kyo."

Advanced articles and lectures and a complete listing of all Nichiren Shoshu Temples in the US Also See: Nichiren Shoshu Websites "Since Nichiren's disciples, both priests and laymen, believe in the supremacy of the Lotus Sutra, which states, "... Never accept even a single phrase from other sutras," they can enter the Treasure Tower of the Gohonzon. How reassuring! Make every possible effort for the sake of your next life. The most important thing is to chant only Nam-myoho-renge-kyo and attain enlightenment. All depends on the strength of your faith. To have faith is the basis of Buddhism."

"There is no greater happiness for all human beings than chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo. The sutra says, "It is the place where living
beings are happy." Doesn't this passage mean the true happiness of freedom? Are you not included among the "living beings"? "Place"
indicates the entire world, which includes Japan. "Happy" means to know that our lives---both our bodies and our minds, ourselves and our
surroundings---are the entities of ichinen sanzen and the Buddha of the actual life of limitless 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."
