"He (the lay priest Nakaoki no Jiro) was as wise as he was advanced in years, and he enjoyed robust health and commanded the esteem of the local people. Probably because this venerable man said of me, 'This priest can be no ordinary person,' his sons did not strongly resent me."

"The greatness of Nichiren Buddhism is that it teaches the means by which all people can reveal their innate Buddhahood in their lives here and now, based on the principle of universal enlightenment elucidated in the Lotus Sutra. In terms of our practice, this signifies that by believing in the Gohonzon and chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo for our own and others' happiness, we ordinary people can tap the wisdom and life force of the world of Buddhahood without fail. This is the 'secret and wonderful expedient means' in Nichiren Buddhism."
