Nichiren Daishonin says, “The ‘great vow’ refers to the propagation of the Lotus Sutra” (The Record of the Orally Transmitted Teachings, p. 82), and May 3 has been designated as the day of our great vow for kosen-rufu. Each time it arrives, it is a day for mentor and disciples to pledge together to carry out the widespread propagation of the Mystic Law, a day to embark anew on our struggle for world peace and the happiness of humanity. And so it will be forever!
