"The Daishonin says that there are two objects of dedication in Buddhism, the Person and the Law. He then discusses the Chinese characters comprising the term 'dedicate one's life' (Jpn kimyo). He says that 'dedication' (ki) means 'dedicating one's life to' the principle of eternal and unchanging truth of the theoretical teaching and that 'life' (myo) means 'basing one's life on' the wisdom of the truth of the essential teaching that functions in accordance with changing circumstances (see OTT, 3).

"In other words, 'dedication' means seeking to understand the unchanging truth and striving to enter that realm of truth. Grounding ourselves in that truth, we then return to the real world and engage in activities 'basing our lives on' the wisdom we draw forth in response to changing circumstances.
"This is what it means to "dedicate one's life" to Nam-Myoho-renge-kyo."
