I love ALL your videos and have watched all of them. Some of them a few times more than others. This one right here?!?!? I am sheding a few tears. We are Nam Myoho Renge Kyo. And we are so powerful!!!
I would do whatever feels natural. I set the goal before I start chanting and I find that it might come up while I am chanting. If I notice I am focusing on the problem rather than the solution, I shift to the solution. People get benefit just being themselves.
Just started a deep devotion to Nichiren chanting and Buddhism in general. I had only known about the popular idea of mindful budha sitting quietly. But this has completely changed my life In ways that nothing else has. It’s not even about wealth or materialism but the state of what is going on inside. I’ve been doing this devoutly for a little over a month i do wonder how it will be years down the road. I love using drums in my daimoku . Kind of helps me me feel Like I’m in a ceremony in the air .
Thank you so much for this! I love right in the beginning, how you mention you are only going to find self empowerment & love within. Not without ✌️😁. Not externally. I have had miracles happen to me from this practice. 🙏🏼Thanks for your words and feelings of wisdom!
Marvelous.....I've been watching your videos over the last couple of days having chanced upon them 6 years into the practice. I so love these guidance vlogs. Very clear annd crisp. Thank you.
Hi Margaret ❤️ I’ve watched most of your videos and have two questions: Do we think about the goal / feel the goal WHILE chanting - or set the goal before and focus on the chant. Can we hear how YOU chant? Could you give us a demonstration of one of your chanting sessions and talk us through each step explaining what you’re thinking / feeling? Thanks so much!!
Hello Margaret, thank you so much for sharing such amazing videos. I wanted to ask a question. I am going through Anxiety. My mind wanders a lot and rushed. I am taking medication and therapy. I have been practising over 13 years. But I am not able to concentrate while chanting. I think a lot and realise already 1 hr Daimoku is over. It’s not going in my life. I have been really trying hard to focus but not able to and enjoy the chanting. I am restless.. any suggestions/ guidance..
Hi Margaret, thank you for such wonderful videos. Question for you, what is the title of the book where President Toda talks about we are Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, I don't have the concept very clear and would like to read more about it!
Faith develops as we achieve results from chanting. Pick a goal that would be a stretch and plan to chant for it for 90 days. This is a prove-it-to-yourself-practice. You might be interested in my book Your Path to Unshakeable Happiness. You can get it on my website, www.margaretblaine.com or on Amazon.
Chanting Nam-myoho-renge- kyo connects you with the infinite mind that created the universe and does have the answers you are looking for. Just relax and listen to what comes up. You are so busy intellectualizing, that it's hard to hear.
Hi Margaret, I am new to this faith. Your guidance is showing me glimpses of hope and victory. However, since I am living with clinical depression and anxiety, for the last 15 years, I find it challenging to gather absolute faith and resolve to win. Even though I chant, due to my depression ( it does feel like a disability many times) I am unable to experience a strong rush and conviction of 1000 wattage...Mostly I function at 200 Watttage.. Or is this my normal ? Can i still achieve results as long as I am consistent and committed ? P.S : I shared with you on another blog that I have joined this practice so that my brother gets healed of his kidney issue. Big Thanks, Waiting for your response.
You will absolutely achieve results. If you have a clinical depression, have you consulted a doctor? Medications can be helpful. I believe I did answer your question, although I can't remember with which video it was associated.
Margaret Blaine yes , I am on medication and on therapy too but sometimes, miss that overwhelming and victorious faith and confidence I see in those around me. But guess, like you mentioned, I can still chant and win , with my condition.

Margaret where have you been all our lives? Society needs to hear you now more than ever!
This is not a silent meditation. The voice does the Buddha's work.
When we revere our innate Buddhahood, all fears vanish naturally. We establish strong connection with the entire universe.

Hello mam, I want to start chanting but I don't have the gohonzon image, so I can start simply by sitting and chanting mindfully
yes. The Gohonzon is in your heart. The image provides a focal point and a daily reminder that we have the Buddha nature within.
@@margaretblaine5367 thank you so much mam for clearing my doubts 🙏
Hi I'm from Brazil! I start tô chanting without the gohonzon, but since I receiveid the gohonzon my life start to change.
Tell me how you chanted about the goal.
Hi Margaret
Can we chant silently?
Pls answer tc love always

I chant and wait for magic to happen, I'm guilty of that
