Nichiren,a Japanese Buddhist priest (1222-1282) declared that all of the benefits of the wisdom contained in 'Lotus Sutra' can be realized by chanting NAM-MYOHO-RENGE-KYO.
The meaning of the mantra is

* NAM- Devotion,

* MYOHO- The mystic law (law of life),

* RENGE- Of Lotus,

* KYO- The teaching itself (of Budhha)

* Sit on a chair or on the floor,keep your eyes open and focussed on a blank wall to avoid distraction.

* Clasp your hands together in the same way as you do while praying.

* Before starting,fix your mind on some thing you want to achieve(What ever it may be).

* You can chant at a speed of 1 Daimoku per second or 40 Daimoku per minute.Choose the speed you feel comfortable with.


Ideally it has to be chanted twice a day 10-15 minutes each.
Just stick to it and feel the difference.
