Daily Wisdom - The joyfulness of chant the daimoku

From the Writings of Nichiren Daishonin
Friday, January 14, 2011:

Therefore, when you chant the daimoku of this sutra, you should be aware that it is a more joyful thing than for one who was born blind to gain sight and see one's father and mother, and a rarer thing than for a man who has been seized by a powerful enemy to be released and reunited with his wife and children.

The Daimoku of the Lotus Sutra
Recipient unknown; written on January 6, 1266
