Nichiren
"Suppose we ask where the Buddha is, and where hell is. Some sutras state that hell is below the earth, while others state that the Pure Land of the Buddhas is in the west. But the explicit truth is that both hell and Buddha exist within five feet of our bodies. It probably can be said that hell exists in one's mind when he despises his father and neglects his mother. As the seed of the lotus brings forth its root and flower, we have the Buddha in our minds." --- from Omosu Dono Nyobo Gohenji, Letter to Mrs. Omosu, ST.1856
----Inspiration from St. Nichiren------ |
