About

Daimoku Passbook

Features
Read full description

The Daimoku is the source of life force; with every chant, our life wells up infinitely. Daimoku Passbook is a practice journal made for the chanting and prayer of Soka Gakkai (SGI) members. From today onward, turn each day's chanting into visible progress, set a mighty vow, and advance toward victory—chant together, win together. In the shared struggle of comrades, we are never alone. ■ Chanting Log & Timer A focused chanting timer that automatically records each session when you finish. Choose to display your progress by "time" or by "count" as you prefer, so your daily totals are clear at a glance and your growth is something you can witness. ■ Gongyo Recitation Recite the Hoben and Jigage passages with kana or romaji shown for every character. Choose a horizontal or vertical layout and adjust the text size; open it mid-session and the timer keeps running. ■ Prayer Goals Create, edit, reorder, and archive your prayer goals. Keep them private, or make them public to share with friends—turn faith into concrete wishes and action. On the chanting page you can choose which cards appear, drag to reorder them, and tap one to read it in full. ■ 1M Daimoku Challenge Vow to chant a million daimoku and watch a 100-cell board fill in: every 10,000 chants lights one cell, right there on the chanting page. Each completed round is archived automatically as a keepsake. ■ Chanting Groups Form chanting groups with friends and accumulate the group's chant count together. Set shared chanting items, see each member's contribution and presence, and unite the strength of the shared struggle. ■ Battle Partners & Group Chanting Add fellow members as battle partners to encourage one another and share goals. While you chant, see others chanting at that very moment—not just friends, up to 5, and you choose how many—and get notified when a friend starts chanting. You are never alone on the path forward. ■ Community Feed Share moments from your practice, reply to one another, like and bookmark posts. Attach photos or a video, and translate anything you can't read into your own language with one tap. Switch the feed between World and Friends, Latest and Popular. Community guidelines, reporting and blocking keep the space respectful. ■ Practice Achievement Share Card Turn your chanting achievements into a beautiful card to share with family and friends. Pick your own stats period and include a QR code to download the app, inviting more people to chant along. ■ Daily Reminders & Anniversaries Set daily chanting reminders (multiple reminders, on the days of the week you choose) and mark meaningful anniversaries, so your habit endures and its meaning lasts. ■ Dark Mode & Multiple Languages Supports dark and light themes, and is available in Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, English, Japanese, Spanish, Portuguese, and French. ■ Try Without Signing In Start as a guest to try the app, then link an account later to fully keep all your records. ■ Premium Subscription With Premium: ad-free practice, chanting time that keeps counting even with the app closed, and more. Start today, and let every chant be cherished and recorded. — Subscription Details — This app offers a Premium subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase.
