Daily Wisdom - The Essence of the "Life Span" Chapter

rom the Writings of Nichiren Daishonin
Wednesday, April 18, 2012:

Were it not for the presence of the "Life Span" chapter among all the teachings of Shakyamuni, they would be like the heavens without the sun and moon, a kingdom without a king, the mountains and seas without treasures, or a person without a soul. This being so, without the "Life Span" chapter, all the sutras are meaningless.
