Daily Wisdom
From the Writings of Nichiren Daishonin

Even a wise man cannot become a Buddha through the other sutras, but with the Lotus Sutra, even fools can plant the seeds that lead to Buddhahood. As the sutra passage I have quoted earlier puts it, "Although they do not seek emancipation, emancipation will come of itself."

The Opening of the Eyes
Written to Shijo Kingo in February 1272
