July 18
last week when i attended a sgi discussion meeting, a member said she would be transferred to a new job in oct/nov and she is a bit anxious for fear of the unknown.
I remember reading a story about a very old guy who was going to be admitted into a remote retirement home. His friends asked if he would be happy there and he said: of course i will be, because i have already determined that i will be happy there."
therefore i said to this member: your future is 'known', because you can chant nam myo ho renge kyo and determined to be happy, whatever you do and wherever you are.
our success, or failure in our life depends on just one moment of thought.
in buddhism this is called 'Ichinen sanzen'
