Buddhahood is about the mind and the immediate experience of our enlightened nature in this very life in each moment to moment.

Dignity, abiding respect for life and the sentient mind of experience and curiosity; these are the basis for all relationships, with compassion for what is ignorance and value for self-teaching.

Nichiren , the disciple of Shakyamuni Buddha, quotes from the sutra teachings of the Buddha, the importance and the significance of teaching and practice at the correct time.

Nichiren closes with simple arguments to silence the criticisms of all other groups and sects that would negate the supremacy and complete teachings of the Lotus/Nirvana Sutras.

Follow the Dharma, not the person. Your study and practice are to experience the meaning and awakening of Buddha in your mind. Do not be led by the charisma and personality of others.

The Pure Land of Tranquil Light and Bliss is right here and now; yours to experience. All you need do is focus your mind on it. NaMuMyoHoRenGeKyo!

Those who have left the Lotus Practice due to bad teachers can now return to their enlightenment practice as independent “self-practice” Lotus Sutra Buddhists in our Sangha!

How should we uphold the True Dharma? By reading, reciting, copying, and sharing this Lotus/Nirvana teaching with others.

We are constantly distracted by rumors and ideas appealing to our vanity and Earthly desires. Yet, what could be more grand than our own invocation and experience of Buddhaness?

Your ”good friend” (reliable teacher) is you and the Lotus/Nirvana Sutras. Your direct relationship with Buddha is yours to experience at any time you will it.
