Do you feel guilty chanting for money? Discover the hidden mechanism that turns your "greed" into spiritual power and wisdom.
Life acts as a grand stage. You play the leading role in your own drama. Many people surrender their power to the environment. They blame circumstances for their unhappiness. They wait for a savior to rescue them. This is the way of a common mortal. The disciple of Nichiren Daishonin takes full responsibility.
You write the script of your life through your thoughts and actions. Buddhism teaches that the body and the shadow are one. The environment is the shadow. You are the body. When the body moves then the shadow follows. CHANGE YOURSELF and the world changes. Chant Namu-myoho-renge-kyo with a vow to win.
Do not depend on others. Stand up alone. Determine that you are the protagonist of kosen-rufu. The power to transform reality lies in your hands. Your karma is your mission. Your struggle is the plot that leads to a glorious conclusion. Embrace your role. Direct your life toward the summit of enlightenment. You possess the power to change everything.

Strategies of the world often fail. Men rely on deception or military might. They rely on wealth or political influence. These forces are shallow and temporary. The Strategy of the Lotus Sutra surpasses all other methods. It is the strategy of prayer before action. Nichiren Daishonin urged Shijo Kingo to employ no other strategy.
Wisdom arises from the depths of life when you chant Namu-myoho-renge-kyo. This wisdom sees the true nature of the problem. It reveals the solution that remains hidden to the ordinary mind. Force creates resistance. Prayer creates alignment. When you base your life on the Mystic Law then you spin the wheels of fortune in your favor.
Every battle is won first in the heart. Defeat the enemy of negativity within your own life. Then you will triumph in the external world. TRUST THE LAW completely. Let the daimoku be your primary weapon. It pierces through every barrier. It turns poison into medicine. Discard petty schemes. Rely on the sword of the Lotus Sutra for absolute safety and victory.

A lion king fears no other beast. It moves with absolute confidence. It attacks its prey with total focus. The practitioner of the Lotus Sutra must possess this same spirit. Fear acts as a devil that paralyzes the will. It creates illusions of weakness. Nichiren Daishonin compares the chanting of Namu-myoho-renge-kyo to the roar of a lion. This roar silences all misfortune.
You possess the power to command your environment. Do not behave like a sheep before the wolf of adversity. Summon the heart of a lion king. Roar against the obstacles in your path. The sound of your daimoku shakes the universe. It activates the protective forces of life.
CONFIDENCE IS ESSENTIAL for victory. A hesitant voice reaches nowhere. A determined voice reaches the lands of all Buddhas. Believe in the magnitude of your own life. You are a tower of treasure. No enemy can destroy a person who awakens to their true strength. Chant with ferocity. Scatter the dark clouds of doubt. Walk the path of life with your head held high.

The natural world follows a strict law. The bitter cold of winter eventually yields to the warmth of spring. Ancient people never witnessed winter turn backward into autumn. They never saw it remain winter forever. The cycle of life follows this same principle. Your current suffering is the winter of your life. It contains the seed of supreme enlightenment.
Nichiren Daishonin teaches that those who believe in the Lotus Sutra are like winter. Winter always turns to spring. This is an absolute promise. Do not be discouraged by the frost of adversity. The deeper the snow piles up then the greater the spring blossom will be. Hardship serves as fuel for your growth. It strengthens your character.
Chanting Namu-myoho-renge-kyo melts the ice of karma. It transforms the mud of daily struggles into the nutrients for happiness. YOU MUST PERSIST through the cold. The sun of wisdom will rise. The flowers of benefit will bloom. Joy follows suffering. Light follows darkness. This represents the rhythm of the Mystic Law. Keep your faith strong. The arrival of spring is inevitable.
