I have just completed my 68th straight day of chanting Nam Myoho renge Kyo for 2 hours every day.
Why am I doing this?
I am about to enter my 25th year of Buddhist practice.
The Buddhism I practice is based on showing actual proof in your life...in other words...you get results from chanting. It is each practitioner's responsibility to achieve whatever results they want. We practice together in an organization called the SGI-USA...the Soka Gakkai (value creating society).
Each one of our prayers is a VOW to achieve our dreams.
Does everyone HAVE to chant 2 hours a day? Nooooooo!
I decided to do it because I'm about to start my 25th year of practice and wanted to use this event to really change some karma!
Over the years so many benefits have flowed from my practice...wonderful jobs, an invigorating career, my passion for public speaking (now I am loving speaking on Buddhism - let me know and I'll come to your group!) my wonderful children Aaron and Ben and the great family we have. I have chanted for so many friends, and seen the effects in their lives...I have bought houses and cars...
and the most important thing of all is that I can chant for other people and see the effects in their lives...and we can grow closer. I have reseolved all kinds of challenges in the work place, and on the home front, and within my own mind!
Every time I chant for someone's happiness I see a result. It's a wonderful thing to be able to chant for others!
