    I was locked out of the house, didn't know the door closes automatically. Anyways, it was -0° and I was scared and cold, and heard my phone ringing inside, while I was locked out. I started chanting the mantra and I felt really better, safe and stronger. I can't explain the feeling, but I was less anxious and stayed until the door was open. Try it, helps when all seems hopeless.

    Thank you for planting the seed of the Lotus Sutra! 🌱 I started chanting in 2013 and received Gohonzon on Nicheren Daishonin's day of passing. I was inconsistent with the practice until I recently lost my job (that I wasn't happy working in) and had to walk away from my romantic interest this year. I found my Omamori Gohonzon in my drawer (I'm living in a small space so I'm unable to use my regular Gohonzon) and started chanting again to overcome the obstacles after my loss. The healing process hasn't been easy but I ended up making peace with the situation and found acceptance. I started receiving job offers shortly after. Nam Myoho Renge Kyo does work and I'm speaking actual proof that you can change poison into medicine! You have earned yourself a happy subscriber! 😊🙏💖

    I have been practising for 30 years. When I was in my early 20s, I have met few gifted people, two of them are monks. They asked me what Buddhism I practice & who is my master as I am surrounded by strong protection & many Bodhisattvas at such a young age . I answered them I am the practiner of Nichiren Daishonin Buddhism. They all were shocked & were surprised how powerful Nam Myoho Renge Kyo is 🙏... I am forever grateful to Gohonzon for all the transformation in my life including health, finance, relationship & harmonious family 🙏🙏🙏. I am determined to achieve more victories so I can reach out & support more people ❤

    @A_Muzik There are no miracles in Buddhism. Buddhism is based on cause and effect. Our practice turns faith into wisdom. Making the correct choices for your life can seem miraculous at times; the results exceeding our expectations. We don't know what the depth of our negative karma is, but with consistent practice, never giving up, you can overcome any obstacle and point your life in the direction of personal growth and continuous victory.

    I’ve been practicing Nam Myoho Renge Kyo as part of SGI since 10 years. My favorite piece of encouragement that I stick to when things seem impossible to overcome is “chant as if to create fire from damped wood, water from parched land”. In short, when we determine to win and make a breakthrough in the midst of our struggles, we can achieve anything we set our minds to. It’s helped me to defeat the deep fear in my life at job front wherein I’ve got my work visa approved unexpectedly 3 times when I least expected it. I am grateful for the relentless person I’ve become through this practice.

    @@TRUEBUDDHISM Dr. Ikeda died 10 days ago of natural causes. He was 95 years old. He had been retired for the last 10 years. He was the recipient of over 250 honorary doctoral degrees by universities worldwide. He holds the world record for the most published works by an individual author. He is truly the World Honored One. The legitimacy of the 67th high priest Nikken Abe had always been in question. The formation of the Shoshinkai opposing his assumption of the office was quashed by Nichiren Shoshu, which was then supported by the Soka Gakkai. Nikken's attempt to commandeer the financial resources of the SGI by forcing its members to subordinate themselves to a resumption of the Danka system was rejected by the members of SGI international forcing the hand of the priesthood to commit acts of unprecedented arrogance and slander which have continued unabated to this day. The Soka Gakkai International IS the Kosen Rufu movement. Anyone practicing Nichiren Buddhism under their aegis will not fail to gain immense benefits leading to the ultimate goal of the enlightenment of buddhahood. Your attack on the SGI is nothing more than a whining complaint and a display of your impotent and vindictive character.

    From 'Saved by the Light of the Buddha Within'... My new understandings of what many call 'God -The Holy Spirit' - resulting from some of the extraordinary ongoing after-effects relating to my NDE... Myoho-Renge-Kyo represents the identity of what some scientists are now referring to as the unified field of consciousnesses. In other words, it’s the essence of all existence and non-existence - the ultimate creative force behind planets, stars, nebulae, people, animals, trees, fish, birds, and all phenomena, manifest or latent. All matter and intelligence are simply waves or ripples manifesting to and from this core source. Consciousness (enlightenment) is itself the actual creator of everything that exists now, ever existed in the past, or will exist in the future - right down to the minutest particles of dust - each being an individual ripple or wave. The big difference between chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo and most other conventional prayers is that instead of depending on a ‘middleman’ to connect us to our state of inner enlightenment, we’re able to do it ourselves. That’s because chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo allows us to tap directly into our enlightened state by way of this self-produced sound vibration. ‘Who or What Is God?’ If we compare the concept of God being a separate entity that is forever watching down on us, to the teachings of Nichiren, it makes more sense to me that the true omnipotence, omniscience and omnipresence of what most people perceive to be God, is the fantastic state of enlightenment that exists within each of us. Some say that God is an entity that’s beyond physical matter - I think that the vast amount of information continuously being conveyed via electromagnetic waves in today’s world gives us proof of how an invisible state of God could indeed exist. For example, it’s now widely known that specific data relayed by way of electromagnetic waves has the potential to help bring about extraordinary and powerful effects - including an instant global awareness of something or a mass emotional reaction. It’s also common knowledge that these invisible waves can easily be used to detonate a bomb or to enable NASA to control the movements of a robot as far away as the Moon or Mars - none of which is possible without a receiver to decode the information that’s being transmitted. Without the receiver, the data would remain impotent. In a very similar way, we need to have our own ‘receiver’ switched on so that we can activate a clear and precise understanding of our own life, all other life and what everything else in existence is. Chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo each day helps us to achieve this because it allows us to reach the core of our enlightenment and keep it switched on. That’s because Myoho-Renge-Kyo represents the identity of what scientists now refer to as the unified field of consciousnesses. To break it down - Myoho represents the Law of manifestation and latency (Nature) and consists of two alternating states. For example, the state of Myo is where everything in life that’s not obvious to us exists - including our stored memories when we’re not thinking about them - our hidden potential and inner emotions whenever they’re dormant - our desires, our fears, our wisdom, happiness, karma - and more importantly, our enlightenment. The other state, ho, is where everything in Life exists whenever it becomes evident to us, such as when a thought pops up from within our memory - whenever we experience or express our emotions - or whenever a good or bad cause manifests as an effect from our karma. When anything becomes apparent, it merely means that it’s come out of the state of Myo (dormancy/latency) and into a state of ho (manifestation). It’s the difference between consciousness and unconsciousness, being awake or asleep, or knowing and not knowing. The second law - Renge - Ren meaning cause and ge meaning effect, governs and controls the functions of Myoho - these two laws of Myoho and Renge, not only function together simultaneously but also underlies all spiritual and physical existence. The final and third part of the tri-combination - Kyo, is the Law that allows Myoho to integrate with Renge - or vice versa. It’s the great, invisible thread of energy that fuses and connects all Life and matter - as well as the past, present and future. It’s also sometimes termed the Universal Law of Communication - perhaps it could even be compared with the string theory that many scientists now suspect exists. Just as the cells in our body, our thoughts, feelings and everything else is continually fluctuating within us - all that exists in the world around us and beyond is also in a constant state of flux - constantly controlled by these three fundamental laws. In fact, more things are going back and forth between the two states of Myo and ho in a single moment than it would ever be possible to calculate or describe. And it doesn’t matter how big or small, famous or trivial anything or anyone may appear to be, everything that’s ever existed in the past, exists now or will exist in the future, exists only because of the workings of the Laws ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’ - the basis of the four fundamental forces, and if they didn’t function, neither we nor anything else could go on existing. That’s because all forms of existence, including the seasons, day, night, birth, death and so on, are moving forward in an ongoing flow of continuation - rhythmically reverting back and forth between the two fundamental states of Myo and ho in absolute accordance with Renge - and by way of Kyo. Even stars are dying and being reborn under the workings of what the combination ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’ represents. Nam, or Namu - which mean the same thing, are vibrational passwords or keys that allow us to reach deep into our life and fuse with or become one with ‘Myoho-Renge-Kyo’. On a more personal level, nothing ever happens by chance or coincidence, it’s the causes that we’ve made in our past, or are presently making, that determine how these laws function uniquely in each of our lives - as well as the environment from moment to moment. By facing east, in harmony with the direction that the Earth is spinning, and chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo for a minimum of, let’s say, ten minutes daily to start with, any of us can experience actual proof of its positive effects in our lives - even if it only makes us feel good on the inside, there will be a definite positive effect. That’s because we’re able to pierce through the thickest layers of our karma and activate our inherent Buddha Nature (our enlightened state). By so doing, we’re then able to bring forth the wisdom and good fortune that we need to challenge, overcome and change our adverse circumstances - turn them into positive ones - or manifest and gain even greater fulfilment in our daily lives from our accumulated good karma. This also allows us to bring forth the wisdom that can free us from the ignorance and stupidity that’s preventing us from accepting and being proud of the person that we indeed are - regardless of our race, colour, gender or sexuality. We’re also able to see and understand our circumstances and the environment far more clearly, as well as attract and connect with any needed external beneficial forces and situations. As I’ve already mentioned, everything is subject to the law of Cause and Effect - the ‘actual-proof-strength’ resulting from chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo always depends on our determination, sincerity and dedication. For example, the levels of difference could be compared to making a sound on a piano, creating a melody, producing a great song, and so on. Something else that’s very important to always respect and acknowledge is that the Law (or if you prefer God) is in everyone and everything. NB: There are frightening and disturbing sounds, and there are tranquil and relaxing sounds. It’s the emotional result of any noise or sound that can trigger off a mood or even instantly change one. When chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo each day, we are producing a sound vibration that’s the password to our true inner-self - this soon becomes apparent when you start reassessing your views on various things - such as your fears and desires etc. The best way to get the desired result when chanting is not to view things conventionally - rather than reaching out to an external source, we need to reach into our own lives and bring our needs and desires to fruition from within - including the good fortune and strength to achieve any help that we may need. Chanting Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo also reaches out externally and draws us towards, or draws towards us, what we need to make us happy from our environment. For example, it helps us to be in the right place at the right time - to make better choices and decisions and so forth. We need to think of it as a seed within us that we’re watering and bringing sunshine to for it to grow, blossom and bring forth fruit or flowers. It’s also important to understand that everything we need in life, including the answer to every question and the potential to achieve every dream, already exists within us.

    In my opinion, as a former Buddhist it’s an illusion that we are god/s or have god inside of us. For me now it’s arrogant to make that statement, because we are flawed and sinners and not at all perfect and good in many ways. Also we did not create this world or us ourself. So that’s for me reasons we can’t be GOD. Cause the creater did that and so he is and must be above all. So for me it’s a deception to follow sth which sells the illusion of Buddha nature or a god inside of me. I feel a lot better since I don’t try to be happy cleansed godlike or everything else anymore. But the state of happiness is sth I can refer to or understand. Mantras maybe also have effects on brain and stress and focus etc.

    @@Simian-in2js The Bible states that we are made in God's image - if that's the case then we must all contain the Godliness potential - whether we are able to tap into it and manifest it is another matter, of course, but the potential is all included in the image.
