Nam Myoho Range Kyo

Millions of people have revolutionized their lives through this dynamic Buddhist practice. It is a living, dynamic Buddhism.

The ultimate teaching of all Buddhas, of the past, present and future, is Nam Myoho Range Kyo. This teaching is the core and heart of all wisdom in the universe. It enables the ordinary human being to look within in order to seek the wisdom and inspiration to solve all life's problems.

The teaching is based on chanting Nam Myoho Range Kyo to the Mystical Mandala, or Gohonzon, inscribed by the Buddha, Nichiren Dai Shonin in his highest state of enlightenment. Chanting to The Gohonzon, enables us to polish our life and see the Buddha state within.

As we develop our practice, all life around us seeks to support and nurture us, and our lives change for the better with meaningful coincidences. We begin to understand that we are part of an interconnected web of meaningful, enfolding and compassionate existence. Obstacles become fuel for growth and transformation, and all illnesses can be overcome. This teaching is about life, existence, reality, and compassion. It is the culmination of the lineage of wisdom and teachings, begun by Shakymuni Buddha 2,500 years ago.

The ultimate reality is a loving compassionate reality made of the light of consciousness from which all the universe manifests as a creative field of essence.

As Practitioners of Nichiren Shoshu Buddhism, we have direct access through our chanting to the Gohonzon to this vibrant dynamic field of potentiality and illumination

This gateway is known in many ways, through various esoteric path ways. We need to respect all cultures and all paths which are based on this compassionate view of Humanity and the Universe.

The Buddhism of Nam Myo Renge Kyo is esoteric, and gives us direct access, without any intermediary, to the ocean of universal enlightenment. Our aim is to focus solely on the Dai Gohonzon and chant for World Peace and Unity. We are each privileged to establish our unique connection with the Mystic Law

Nichiren Daishonin states—The sutra says: "Rely on the Law and not upon persons. Rely on the meaning [of the teaching] and not upon the words. Rely on wisdom and not upon discriminative thinking. Rely on sutras that are complete and final and not on those that are not complete and not final."

The meaning of this passage is that one should rely not upon the words of the bodhisattvas and teachers, but should heed that which was established by the Buddha

Nam Myoho Renge Kyo is the universal teaching which transcends all differences between human beings enabling them to be of one mind or in a state of interconnectedness and oneness.

It is the heritage of the ultimate law of life and death.

Rely on the words of the Buddha, Nichiren Daishonin himself and seek the most perfect understanding and interpretations of these teachings, which align with modern thought and contemporary science. All the teachings of Nichiren Daishonin are based on literary (written), theoretical (scientific) and actual proof.

QUOTE: I, Nichiren, have inscribed my life in sumi ink, so believe in the Gohonzon with your whole heart. The Buddhas will is the Lotus Sutra, but the soul of Nichiren is nothing other than Nam-myoho-renge-kyo. Miao-lo states in his commentary that the heart of this sutra is the revelation of the Buddhas original enlightenment and his immeasurable life span--Reply to Kyo

  • .It is the same with a Buddha and an ordinary being. When deluded, one is called an ordinary being, but when enlightened, one is called a Buddha. This is similar to a tarnished mirror that will shine like a jewel when polished. A mind now clouded by the illusions of the innate darkness of life is like a tarnished mirror, but when polished. it is sure to become like a clear mirror, reflecting the essential nature of phenomena and the true aspect of reality.

  • We indeed have to edify every single person who chants Nam Myoho Renge Kyo

    I see the current conflict between the SGI and Nichiren Shoshu as being maybe a basic cause to the current cataclysm in Japan

    Conflict and mutual recrimination are not Buddhist and do not create peace

    We should all chant for each other and for peace in the World. Rely on the Law – expressed as the Dai Gohonzon and not the Person!

  • a lot of principles in the Lotus Sutra are also in the Bible..I think that followers of the Bible misinterpret its meanings but Nichiren buddhism I find hits it right on the head...However, I am confused as to where Jesus(not necessarily Christianity)plays apart in the whole spiritual picture?Just like other great Buddhas exsisted and expounded the truth of the universe unto the earth,why is it believed that Jesus' way, or example is the only one we should except??Y didnt God spread Buddhism 2

  • We align with divinity through the many mansions of light created by ultimate reality or God, the unknowable Yaweh. We are beings of light evolving to higher levels of enlightenment by which we transcend the sufferings of life and death. By these means we arrive at the throne of divinity and within the house of the eternal Buddha. In western society this resurrection is through the love of Christos. Nam Myo Ho Renge Kyo is highest language of light.

  • The Gohonzon we chant to is a gateway in our mindsand hearts or a deeply held eternal memory.This mandala is the the mystic truth within our lives Nam Myoho Renge Kyo ,the mystic truth within our lives ,represents the ceremony in the air which is the Gohonzon which is beyond space and time,omniscient,all knowing,oneness of all,infinite intelligence,infinite life,compassion,wisdom,compass­ionand enlightenment and therfore GOD CONSCIOUSNESS

  • QUOTE: I, Nichiren, have inscribed my life in sumi ink, so believe in the Gohonzon with your whole heart.

  • Could someone please explain to me exactly what is meant when the video says "In this Buddhism we do not eliminate desires. Desires when transformed lead to enlightenment?" I am new to Nichiren Buddhism, but familiar with other types of Buddhism.

  • @LynetteYetter "the cause of calamities and disasters is when priests twist the Buddhist teachings for their own gain and power. This is a description of the sect currently occupying the Head Temple at Taisekiji."

    Utter nonsense. Nichiren Shoshu has not changed its teachings one iota. SGI, in contrast, has done a 180-degree turn and is slandering the temple again just like in the 1970s. SGI is an Ikeda-worshipping cult.

  • Don't be attached to the Dai-Gohonzon, it is a material object. If the Daishonin wanted us to enshrine an eternal sacred object he would have had it engraved in stone. In time it will deteriorate. Let us LIVE the daigohonzon by engaging in Kosen Rufu.

  • @Nikbones jesus the deity of the old testament and new testament preached a message of hatred for 1800 yers before he changed it his message to his followrs in isreal was DUET 13:6-18 kill unbeleivers,LEV 25:44-46,EX 21:7 own slaves,1 sam 15:1-3 stab infants to death,LEV 20;13 kill gays,LEV 24:16 kill those who SPEAK bad about ur deity(blasphemy the lords name)& their are hundreds more evil teachings that came out of that book if anyone thinks im lieing feel free to google theses verses.

  • @skoomapipe CONT'D : forgiven for our sins. And that is EXACTLY what he did.

  • @skoomapipe Yes Jesus says with Faith we all can perform the works he did and even greater! His purpose was not to come to show of his "holy magical powers"...it was to give mankind a way to be made clean before the God who created us. No man, or woman, or whoever..has claimed that in history...EXCEPT Jesus. If they did, i'm sure we would have heard about that as well. His ONE purpose was to come and die in the manner that was predicted hundreds of yrs before his coming, so that we can be
