Drought, heat wave, floods, wind, landslides, continued radiation effects, hundreds if not thousands of deaths. Yet, nowhere do we have more chanters of Nam(u) Myoho range kyo. What would Nichiren teach about this situation? I think he would reiterate that one can be letter perfect in reciting the Lotus Sutra but how much more difficult to practice as the Lotus Sutra and I (Nichiren) teach. The Soka Gakkai, Nichiren Shoshu, Nichiren Shu, Rissho Kosekai, HBS, and Kempon Hokke all, without a single exception, fail to practice as the Lotus Sutra teaches. They either manufacture non Nichiren Lotus Sutra Buddhist doctrines, practice interfaith, fail to respect Nichiren, or lack faith in the authentic teachings of Nichiren and the Lotus Sutra.
We who practice as the Lotus Sutra teaches enjoy good fortune from ten thousand miles afar.
