PRESIDENT IKEDA'S GUIDANCE ON CHANTING

PRESIDENT IKEDA'S GUIDANCE ON CHANTING

♦️ Chanting should be light, refreshing and vibrant like a noble horse galloping freely across the vast open plains.

♦️ Chant with an honest and open heart just as you are. 

♦️ In times of anguish, or sadness, just go straight to the Gohonzon and chant about your problem whole heartedly.

♦️ When we've done something we regret, we can chant with a determination never to repeat the same mistake, making our daimoku the first step towards a new and better future. 

♦️ When we face a decisive challenge, we can chant strongly and courageously with the firm resolve to win. 

♦️ While battling obstacles, we can chant with the heart of a lion king, filled with confidence that we'll vanquish those negative functions. 

♦️ When we're happy about something, we can chant with a deep spirit of appreciation and gratitude.
