[N]o matter how quickly we progress in coming generations, or how many great advancements we make in science and technology, the teaching of the Lotus Sutra will never be contradicted as long as humans follow the universal law, and deliver universal peace and enlightenment for suffering people. “Universal law” refers to eternal truths that never change from the past to the future, such as the law of gravity on this earth…, the law that time is passing constantly and will never change, that all living things have to grow old, and that having been born, all things will die. This teaching extends not only to the laws on Earth, but also to the laws in the universe.
