“When with our mouths we chant the Mystic Law, our Buddha nature, being summoned, will invariably emerge.”
written by Nichiren Daishonin in 13th century Japan
Just as the words “United States” includes within itself all the mountains, rivers, treasures and people of the United States, Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo includes within itself all of the teachings and benefits of Buddhist practice.
The depth and significance of chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo cannot be fully explained but has to be experienced through practice to grasp the meaning and benefits within your own life.*
