"Though evils may be numerous, they cannot prevail over a single great truth"

Someone stated:

"The world is tired of America using her weapons to bully everyone to assimilation....not only Russia and China but you will see other countries slowly but surely join them...this would be the first time that America would see bombs blasting all over this land, seeing people dying with blown off limbs....Americans will die in great numbers...what we saw Iraq and other countries experience after America invaded...will be seen and felt by us. We will truly know what it is to be in war zones." 

Ron Paul too has a similar viewpoint though he is more muted. The only teaching powerful enough and the only medicine strong enough to prevent such a catastrophe is Namu Myoho renge kyo. 

Nichiren teaches, 

"Though evils may be numerous, they cannot prevail over a single great truth, just as many raging fires are quenched by a single shower of rain. This principle also holds true with Nichiren and his followers."

and

"Defeat would be like moxa cautery, which cures disease, or like acupuncture, which relieves pain. Both are painful at the moment, but bring happiness later." 

When many are dying and the corpses pile up like Mount Whitney, many will embrace the Lotus Sutra and chant Namu Myoho renge kyo. Either way, Nichiren teaches, "The greater the hardships befalling him, the greater the delight he feels." [referring to the votaries of the Lotus Sutra].

  1. Please notice, Nichiren states, a single great "truth", not "gain" as taught by the Three Presidents of the Soka Gakkai.

  2. great point. surely things will get much worse for those who would turn their backs on the great good of the lotus sutra. even more so for those arrogant enough to belittle it. like ikeda and the sgi/nst membership.

    namu myoho renge kyo !!!!!!!
