The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Volumes I & II

Volume I

In this work, Nichiren ties the teachings of the Buddha with the ages after the death of the Buddha. He argues that for the time in which we live, the proper teaching is the Wonderful Dharma of the Lotus Sutra. He also continues his refutation of the Zen, Pure Land and Shingon schools with detailed arguments for not only their inferiority, but the active harm caused by their teachings. He finishes by encouraging us to see ourselves as Bodhisattvas who came into this world to teach the Wonderful Dharma, and not to spare our lives in our efforts to benefit all beings.

Volume II

The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin Vol II covers many topics including A Mother's Gift of a Robe, Prayer for the Lay Nun's Recovery and Climbing up Dragon Gate.
