Happiness in This World

Daily Wisdom

From the Writings of Nichiren Daishonin
Monday, August 13, 2012:

Could "enjoy themselves at ease" mean anything but that both our bodies and minds, lives and environments, are entities of three thousand realms in a single moment of life and Buddhas of limitless joy? There is no true happiness other than upholding faith in the Lotus Sutra. This is what is meant by "peace and security in their present existence and good circumstances in future existences."

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