The Unmatched Blessings of the Law

Daily Wisdom


From the Writings of Nichiren Daishonin
Thursday, September 27, 2012:

What the Lotus Sutra, T'ien-t'ai, and Miao-lo intend to say is that the act of accepting and upholding or protecting and embracing one verse of the Lotus Sutra surpasses the act of making offerings to all living beings, or making offerings to arhats, or even of filling the entire major world system with the seven kinds of treasures as an offering to all Buddhas.

The Unmatched Blessings of the Law
Written to the lay priest Nishiyama on May 11, 1279
