Daily Wisdom - The Teaching, Capacity, Time, and Country

From the Writings of Nichiren Daishonin
Thursday, February 10, 2011:

If even Shariputra, the foremost in wisdom among the disciples of the Buddha, failed to understand people's capacity, then how much more difficult must it be for ordinary teachers today, in the Latter Day of the Law, to have such an understanding! Ordinary teachers who lack an understanding of people's capacity should teach only the Lotus Sutra to those who are under their instruction.
