Sometimes I find things that are Buddhist in nature but maybe not specifically Nichiren Buddhist... Yet it correlates to Buddhist thought and seems to offer a deeper truth and understanding to my Practice of Nichiren Buddhism and Life.
This is one of them: The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle ps: You may not understand everything in the book but just keep reading it (don't quit!) Then read it again 2 years later. And then again 2 years after that. You will be amazed at your personal growth, your understanding of Life and how much your life has changed over the years!

This is a wonderful explanation of Nam Myoho Renge Kyo and summary of Nichiren Buddhism! This is also a great image for sharing!
Nichiren Buddhism teaches that we can bounce to and from all of the ten worlds at any given time. We therefore have the power to acknowledge and choose which one we then reside in. Which one are you right now?

Here is a wonderful little Nichiren Buddhism 101 video that is perfect to share with others! Great for Shakabuku and seeking spirits!
I recently watched an episode of PBS's NOVA celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the Hubble Space Telescope, and it is truly amazing the discoveries that this technology has brought us regarding the wonders (and size!) of the Universe!
Watching the episode made me feel so small in comparison to the vast expanse of our Universe, yet so significant knowing that I was born human and am experiencing life - such a rare opportunity! LIFE! In a Universe where we have yet to find other life outside of our tiny planet, we all were born human - the slim chances of that happening are absolutely unfathomable... This train of thought also reminded me of the writing of Nichiren Daishonin: "It is rare to be born a human being. The number of those endowed with human life is as small as the amount of earth one can place on a fingernail." This episode of NOVA has reminded me of the miracle of life, and renewed my appreciation for how wonderful life is, so I thought I'd share it.
