In a recent discussion with I had about world events and the future of mankind, the other person said, “The biggest problem in this world is that man.. Doesn’t abide by God’s law.”

That got me to thinking, to “abide by God’s law” implies that the God of which this person speaks does not have the power…. To enforce His own law?

Myoho, the mystic law.. Cannot be disobeyed  or rejected.  It does govern all.

When you drop a pen, it will fall to the ground.  You can deny that it does, but still yet we can repeat our actions.  You can attribute the fall to some other power, yet the results are always the same.  Gravity is part of the mystic law just like every other function in the universe.  Cause and effect, and it’s simultanaety.

This practice just never stops amazing me!

When you practice Nichirin Buddhism you are very keenly aware of your actions, and how they immediately manifest into actions within the environment. 

For the past 8 months I’ve been very annoyed at something.  It wasn’t so much that the annoyance was so terrible, but the fact that I was allowing it to eat at me was bad.   It was something that I knew shouldn’t have bothered me and I somehow knew that this action was actually for my benefit but yet I had some inner resentment as to how it was presented.

Though I prefer to not go into great detail on the matter, and for that matter the details of it are really unimportant.. what’s important is though you will receive many benefits with this practice, they aren’t always very obvious at first.

I recently had a knock on my door.  I was very hesitant to answer thinking it was a solicitor.  Peeking through the peep-hole I see a friendly face who brought me the gift of “The Human Revolution” By Daisaku Ikeda - boxed set.  The gift was unexpected but oh so appropriate, a great deal of understanding came over me immediately.  Thank you, my friend.

“A great human revolution in just a single individual will help achieve a change in the destiny of a nation, and further, can even enable a change in the destiny of all humankind.” - Daisaku Ikeda
