"With regard to the Lotus Sutra, when one's hand takes it up, that hand immediately attains Buddhahood, and when one's mouth chants it, that mouth is itself a Buddha."

"Chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo is not calling on some higher power for help. It is a supreme prayer that enables us to fortify our spirit so that we can make the best possible effort. After exerting ourselves to the limits of our abilities, we chant again and strive even harder to break through those limits. The key is to pray specifically and with all our might."
