Wherever and Whenever One Chants Namu Myoho Renge Kyo

There is another important point regarding Odaimoku: Namu Myoho Renge Kyo is not simply one of the Three Great Secret Dharmas, but is itself all three. Namu Myoho Renge Kyo is the Wonderful Dharma, which is the true nature of reality–the Eternal Shakyamuni Buddha. When we chant Odaimoku, we abide in the presence of the Eternal Shakyamuni Buddha, the true Focus of Devotion. Upholding Namu Myoho Renge Kyo is itself the most essential precept; thus, anywhere we chant is transformed into the Precept Platform at that time. Wherever and whenever one chants Namu Myoho Renge Kyo all Three Great Secret Dharmas are present.
