"When we chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, our beings shine as 'the treasure tower itself' (WND-1, 299) and the place where we are sparkles as 'the dwelling place of the treasure tower' (WND-1, 300). When we are confident of that, we no longer put ourselves down or long for some distant, imagined utopia.

"The Daishonin writes: 'Why would we wish to abandon this land and seek to go elsewhere? Therefore practitioners of the Lotus Sutra should think of the place where they are as the pure land' (WND-2, 143). In accord with these words, we can build treasure lands of tranquil light from the places where we are right now."
