Letter from Echi

Daily Wisdom


From the Writings of Nichiren Daishonin
Friday, September 14, 2012:

The government's persecution of me has clearly demonstrated my faith in the Lotus Sutra. There is no doubt that the moon wanes and waxes and that the tide ebbs and flows. In my case, too, since punishment has already occurred, benefit must be forthcoming. What is there to lament?

Letter from Echi
Written to Toki Jonin on September 14, 1271
