That is the purpose why the Buddha appear in this world to show, to open, to awaken and gain entry to the Buddha's wisdom(Buddha's enlightenment) and known as the Buddha nature. How do we develop this and polish it in our lives to make it shine and manifest in our lives? It needs to take efforts or practice. In Nicheren Buddhism aside from prescribe Buddhist practice is to Chant Nam-Myoho Renge Kyo- the truth that operates within our lives.And therefore, chanting this phrase will enable us to tap direcly our enlightened nature.And Faith is the starting point of Buddhist practice. Nicheren says: " To have faith is the basis of Buddhism.He emphasize also the importance of study, along with practice: " Exert yourself in the 2 ways of practice and study. Without practice and study there can be no Buddhism ". Nicheren declares that without the pursuit of knowledge, without the test of reason, there is no Buddhism. Such is the Degree to which the Daishonin's Buddhism values reason. As the DIACHODO RON explains " It is faith through which one enters the sea of Buddhism and wisdom which one crosses it. Buddhist practice start from faith. That leads to the acquisition of wisdom carries us across the great sea of Buddhism- that is, to supreme enlightenment. Faith in Buddhism means establishing ones true self.Faith in Buddhism is not blind faith that rejects the criteria of reason. It is in fact of rational function cultivating of wisdom with a spirit of reverent searching.
