Longer than we expected but none the less, here we are again with the second of a two part lecture on a letter written by Nichiren Daishonin to Shiiji Shiro in 1261. The letter is called A Ship to Cross the Sea of Suffering. This lecture is based on SGI President Ikedas lecture in SGI Newsletter 8518. It was a challenge to get this done and I suspect you may need to listen a couple of times to pick up all the points. Subjects include:
- a ship to cross the water,
- five flavours,
- discarding earlier teachings,
- unfurling the sail,
- 3000 realms,
- middle way,
- leaving the dock of our karma,
- tickets of faith,
- the good ship SGI.
