Gosho Passage of Nichiren Daishonin for October 2026
“On Immutable and Mutable Karma”
“There are two types of illnesses. One type is minor and the second is grave. Even with a grave illness, if one sees a skilled physician and is promptly treated, one can extend one’s life. This is all the more true with minor illnesses. There are two types of karma, immutable and mutable. Sincere repentance will make even immutable karma vanish.”
(Gosho, p. 760)
