The Last Week of September — Three Days Left

Today we entered the last week of September. Only three days remain.

As I chanted daimoku, I felt it deeply: these final three days may be the most important part.

“At Last, the Time to Bring This Out”

In these three days, how will I bring this work to its conclusion? When I asked myself that question, a feeling rose in me: “At last, the time has come to bring this out.”

I have been thinking about it all along, nurturing it all along, going through trial and error in every way. Taking each idea, one by one, with care — trying, failing, and asking, “How about this? How about this?”

Many Errors — and That Is Why We Keep Trying

Moving forward, trying one thing at a time. Many of those attempts do end in error. But that is exactly why we keep trying.

I am convinced that this is Nam-myoho-renge-kyo.

Chanting With All My Heart, Living With All My Heart

It has started raining again today, and the temperature keeps swinging sharply. Still, while taking care of my health, I want every single day to be one where I say, “I will absolutely make this happen.” That is what it means to live with all your heart.

I want to chant with all my heart and live with all my heart. Thank you, and let’s make today a good day.

Let’s have grit! Let’s Gai — true, unbreakable guts! And — Let’s Daimoku!
