Gosho passage - April 1, 2014

"The lion king is said to advance three steps, then gather himself to spring, unleashing the same power whether he traps a tiny ant or attacks a fierce animal. [...] This is what the sutra means by “the power [of the Buddhas] that has the lion’s ferocity.”"

From Gosho "Reply to Kyo’o" (The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin Volume I, page 412)
