The Actions of the Votary of the Lotus Sutra

Daily Wisdom


From the Writings of Nichiren Daishonin
Saturday, September 22, 2012:

I cannot see the sun in the daytime or the moon at night. In winter there is deep snow, and in summer the grass grows thick. Because so few people come to see me, the trail is very hard to travel. This year, especially, the snow is so deep that I have no visitors at all. Knowing that my life may end at any time, I put all my trust in the Lotus Sutra.

The Actions of the Votary of the Lotus Sutra
Written to the lay nun Konichi in 1276
