A dishonest question and my response

"How many hours do you chant per day ? Week ? Month? Year ? Asking because this crazy commentary on this sketchy bully pulpit resembles intellect , not faith based behavior. Generally speaking , people of strong faith: chanting assiduously/ abundantly , tend to be kinder, more compassionate and even more capable of actually helping others than you guys with your crazy talk snd odious behavior! Peek a boo!!We see you 👀" ' -of course Anonymous

Faith is first and foremost. Since 1976 I have chanted several ten millions of Daimoku. Nichiren writes to Shijo Kingo:

"If you continue living as you are now, there can be no doubt that you will be practicing the Lotus Sutra twenty-four hours a day. Regard your service to your lord as the practice of the Lotus Sutra. This is what is meant by “No worldly affairs of life or work are ever contrary to the true reality.”

and regarding himself, Nichiren writes:

"It is already twenty-four or twenty-five years since I began studying Buddhism. Yet I have believed wholeheartedly in the Lotus Sutra only for the past six or seven years. Moreover, although I had faith in the sutra, because I was negligent and because of my studies and the interruptions of mundane affairs, each day I would recite only a single scroll, a chapter, or the title. Now, however, for a period of more than 240 days—from the twelfth day of the fifth month of last year to the sixteenth day of the first month of this year—I think I have practiced the Lotus Sutra twenty-four hours each day and night. I say so because, having been exiled on the Lotus Sutra’s account, I now read and practice it continuously, whether I am walking, standing, sitting, or lying down. For anyone born human, what greater joy could there be?"

I strive to follow in the footsteps of my master Nichiren. Presently, I do Gongyo every day and chant Daimoku until joy wells up from the depths of my life. The long Honmon Daimoku helps me center my life on the Gohonzon, Eternal Buddha, and Nichiren.
