Gosho passage - May 28, 2014

"Money serves various purposes according to our needs. The same is true of the Lotus Sutra. It is a lantern in the dark or a boat at a crossing. At times it is water and, at times, fire. This being so, the Lotus Sutra assures us of “peace and security in our present existence and good circumstances in future existences.”"

From Gosho "The Swords of Good and Evil" (The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin Volume I, page 452)
