• Nichiren (1222–1282) Nichiren was born on 16 February 1222 in the village of Kominato, Nagase District, Awa Province. Nichiren is known for his sole devotion to the Lotus Sutra, asserting that it was Shakyamuni Buddha's ultimate teachings and was the exclusive method to attain enlightenment within a single lifetime (not countless Yugas/Kalpa/Aeons). In Chapter 16 (The Life Span) of the Lotus Sutra has the revelation that the chanting of Nam Myōhō Renge Kyō is the superior practice of Mappō or of the modern age. Nichiren is seen as the Buddha of the Latter Day of the Law. More Info

I have been a Buddhist since 1977, after reading my first book about Dhamma. Starting with transcendental meditation, Mahayana Buddhist study was a constant companion in my life, settling on Nichiren Buddhism, then I received my Gohonzon on November 18th, 2010.

It is said that the outcome of our lives is determined by the final chapter. The period from the age of 60 onwards in particular is the time known as the "Golden Harvest". Our rich experience enables us to forge and create 10 years of experience in a single year, if we blaze brilliantly to the very end, like a beautiful crimson sunset, passionately committed to "Kosen Rufu" and the welfare of our fellow members, we can build a self that is endowed with eternal good fortune and benefit.

As for any endeavor within Nicherin Buddhism you will discover equal and opposite opposing forces (devilish functions). Having made a determination to make this App the harder I tried, the worse my life got, it was a real challenge. Once and for all I wanted to prove that this practice works, that you could chant not only for the small things (like a car parking space where I needed it) but for much bigger things. I had No Go areas that were to risk to chant for or connect to this practice...

If a Determination does not scare you - then it's not Big enough! Equally any good cause, any value creation will attract negative forces and have loads of actual proof of that. [...]

This App is for all of those that chant Daimoku so this App tries to be even handed and tries promote the Buddhism of Nichiren (1222-1282) and the teaching of the Lotus Sutra not whose lips they come from.

Non-SGI

There are many schools of Nichiren Buddhism, not all of which are members of SGI.

There are lots of sources, lots of books, Gosho Study. Wherever possible I will have a link to somewhere you can read more, it might be online or you might have to get a specific edition of a book. But I love to read and study so might you.

The Words of Nichiren Daishonin uses the acronym WND.
