Our Buddhism
-
Is chanting a form of meditation or is it positive thinking?
-
What is karma? How are we responsible for our own karma? And can we change it?
-
Why chant “Nam-myoho-renge-kyo” instead of any other words? Do the words themselves have power?
Daily Gosho
“Teaching another something is the same as oiling the wheels of a cart so that they turn even though it is heavy, or as floating a boat on water so that it moves ahead easily. The way to become a Buddha easily is nothing special. It is the same as giving water to a thirsty person in a time of drought, or as providing fire for a person freezing in the cold. Or again, it is the same as giving another something that is one of a kind, or as offering something as alms to another even at the risk of one’s life.”
