WHAT IS Nam Myoho Renge Kyo?

The primary practice of Nichiren Buddhism is to chant Nam Myoho Renge Kyo. It is the fundamental Mystic Law that governs all phenomena in the universe. Everything in the universe—including our lives, trees, plants, animals and the universe itself—is a manifestation of Nam Myoho Renge Kyo. As the mystic law permeates all life, when chanted, it has the power to transform everything including our destiny.

Nam Myoho Renge Kyo  literally translates as: I DEVOTE MY LIFE TO THE MYSTIC LAW OF CAUSE AND EFFECT.

When we chant Nam Myoho Renge Kyo, we are not pleading with any external being to act in our fa our. Rather, we are repeatedly expressing our determined intention to win as we bring forth from within ourselves our highest life condition of Buddhahood. This is characterized by limitless hope, joy, courage, determination, strength, wisdom and compassion. Our elevated life state in turn puts us in rhythm with the universe, gives us hope and courage to challenge our circumstances and win support for our goals. It also gives rise to the wisdom to make the best decisions. 
President Ikeda says, “We can be in rhythm with the universe 365 days a year—in spring, summer, autumn and winter—and manifest the life force, Wisdom and good fortune that enable us to surmount any problem or suffering. When we rev up the powerful engine of life force that is Buddhahood, we can break through any impasse and keep moving forward, boldly steering ourselves in the direction of hope and justice “ (wchp, Vol.1, Happiness, 61-62)
