Shinjin no Chikara tsuyokuba Onodukara Makete bonnou Kenzoku to naru

Day 5.
 On the surface, it means "If you have an unshakable faith, your earthly desires naturally lose and join in the group of Buddha".
 Today's theme is the aim to go to the temple, chant Odaimoku and listen to a sermon every day.
Faith is your doing to desire. So it's natural to improve today more than yesterday, tomorrow more than today...but also, we have an evil passions.
Kaidou (Nissen) Shounin said, "Have a great faith when you have indecision and doubts or you cannot wave off five avarice(sexual desire, hunger desire, desire for wealth, sleep and fame)".
Why not fight against them but just have an unshakable faith? Because, if you try to fight against them, you are absolutely defeated. So, abandon them and have an enormous faith. Then, they obey you before you are aware. Nissen Shounin said that.
Let's do so!!
