| ON UNDERSTANDING THE LOTUS SUTRA |
| The Lotus Sutra is presented as a pageant or a Broadway musical, explaining how the Buddha became enlightened, how he came to be. Each part of the Lotus Sutra explains this. So the phrase Niji seson ju sanmai is translated to mean "at that moment the Buddha was enlightened." It's hard to recite the Lotus Sutra everyday without understanding what is written. To understand a little would be helpful. |
