SIMPLE TRUTHS

  • Life is Buddhism; the everyday affairs of life are Buddhism
  • The laws of Buddhism are eternal and everlasting
  • Every person has eternal life; all life is eternal; all things possess eternal Buddha-nature
  • The Buddha-nature is called Myōhō-renge-kyō
  • The purpose of life is to have faith, and to realize and manifest the Law of Myōhō-renge-kyō in our daily lives, even if only for a single moment.
  • The way to achieve life’s ultimate purpose is to chant Namu-myoho-renge-kyo. This simple phrase, which literally means devotion to the teaching of the mystical law of cause and effect, is both the Buddha nature and he means by which all Buddhas  attain enlightenment.
  • All faiths, all religions, all beliefs are ultimately Buddhist.
