LOTUS LADY 2
based on:
THE LAND OF TRANQUIL LIGHT
"As I have been saying for some time, in your
situation as a lay believer, you should just single-mindedly chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo
morning and evening, day and night, and observe what happens at the
last moments of your life. At that time, hasten to the summit of
perfect enlightenment, and look around you in all directions. The
entire realm of phenomena will have changed into the
Land of Tranquil Light, with the ground made of lapis lazuli,
the eight paths marked off by golden ropes, the four kinds of
flowers raining down from the heavens, music resounding in the air,
and Buddhas and bodhisattvas all being caressed by breezes of
eternity, happiness, true self, and purity. We, too, will surely be
among their number. The Lotus Sutra is indeed such a splendid sutra!
"
