| | 1/2/01--Interesting religious practices |
| | I've been wondering for months what the significance of it is, whether it's Buddhist or Shinto, and what the words actually mean. | | | I know there's a weird somewhat evangelical neo-Buddhist church in the area, and I wondered if this was them--I was also thinking of the vans (Hasidic or just Orthodox?) that cruise Brooklyn haranguing Jews to be observant. | | | Just about every day, though, I hear a simple chant in a perfect and highly amplified monotone making its way slowly around my neighborhood at around five o'clock. |

| | Saint Nissen wrote in a postscript to The Myoko Ichiza that `Invocation of the Buddha and the saints', and `Transfer of Merits' are included in the Myoko Ichiza but the decision lies with participants in the Buddhist services to chant them or not at services. | | | The Myoko Ichiza is the ritual formulas not only for the HBS's Buddhist services, but for chanting and propagating the Odaimoku, as it contains the essentials of all the doctrine of the HBS. | | | Therefore it is not strictly necessary to chant its full text because we chant the Myoko Ichiza just in order to get mentally and physically prepared for chanting the Odaimoku, to praise the merits of the Odaimoku and to strengthen one's intention for devoting oneself to the religious practice. |
