Daily Wisdom
From the Writings of Nichiren Daishonin
Wednesday, July 11, 2012:
Neither the pure land nor hell exists outside ourselves; both lie only within one's own heart. Awakened to this truth, one is called a Buddha; deluded about it, one is called an ordinary person. The Lotus Sutra reveals this truth, and one who embraces the Lotus Sutra will realize that hell is itself the Land of Tranquil Light.
Hell is the Land of Tranquil Light
Written to Nanjo Tokimitsu's mother on July 11, 1274
