Gosho passage - January 20, 2014

"The great lantern that illuminates the long night of the sufferings of birth and death, the sharp sword that severs the fundamental darkness inherent in life, is none other than the Lotus Sutra."

From Gosho "A Comparison of the Lotus and Other Sutras" (The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, page 1038)
