This month I celebrate my 2-Year Anniversary in joining and becoming a practicing Nichiren Buddhist.  Many thanks to Veronica in gently guiding me in that direction.

Nam-Myoho-Renge-Kyo … The essence of Buddhism is the conviction that we each have within us the ability to overcome any problem or difficulty that we may encounter in life.  This inherent potential is what we refer to as the Buddha nature, a state of life characterized by limitless courage, wisdom and compassion.

The founder of Buddhism, Shakyamuni, or Siddhartha as he is sometimes known, expressed this law of life in The Lotus Sutra where he revealed that all people, without exception, possess this Buddha nature and are inherently worthy of respect.
