"When Nanjo Tokimitsu was gravely ill, the Daishonin, in spite of being ill himself, sternly rebuked the devilish functions plaguing his disciple, saying: 'You demons, by making this man [Tokimitsu] suffer, are you trying to swallow a sword point first, or embrace a raging fire or become the arch enemy of the Buddhas of the ten directions in the three existences?' (WND-1, 1109).

(WND-1, 1109).
"Given courage by the Daishonin's fierce lions roar, Tokimitsu went on to vanquish the devil of illness and lead a long life dedicated to fulfilling his mission for kosen-rufu.
"Regardless of the difficulties and challenges illness may present, we need to have faith in our potential and live our lives to the fullest to the very end. Living with such strength and resilience is itself actual proof of victory in terms of health."
