Happiness in this World

Daily Wisdom
From the Writings of Nichiren Daishonin
Wednesday, June 27, 2012:

Though worldly troubles may arise, never let them disturb you. No one can avoid problems, not even sages or worthies. Drink sake only at home with your wife, and chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo. Suffer what there is to suffer, enjoy what there is to enjoy. Regard both suffering and joy as facts of life, and continue chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, no matter what happens. How could this be anything other than the boundless joy of the Law?

Happiness in this World
Written to Shijo Kingo on June 27, 1276
