About The Enlightening Messages Part II: Eternal Buddha in Us, in the World

This booklet is derived from Nichiou Shonin Kyoke Shu, which was originally published by the Oushi-Kai of Butsugenji on June 10, 1989. The translation of the text has been done through permission of the copyright proprietor of the original work.

 

On this blog, we are introducing a bit of the story as quotes.

 

“What is the source of these natural calamities, of floods, earthquakes and strong winds, epidemics, air pollution and the decay of the human mind?”

 

The answer is..

“This is, after all, because we have turned our back on the real Truth (failed to place the Lotus Sutra at the forefront), the teachings are confused, we have forgotten to cultivate a proper mind, and forgotten our gratitude to the love of the Universe and Mother Nature. Isn’t this the reason why the various deities are raining their anger and divine punishment upon us? The Lotus Sutra explains this principle to us. The truth is that depending upon the way of thinking of those who dwell in this world, this world can become a Buddha Land as well as a Pure Land.”
