"In 'The Three Kinds of Treasure,' the Daishonin advises Shijo Kingo that precisely because he has regained his lord's trust, he should be circumspect in his behaviour and move ahead patiently while working to gain the support of those around him. Mindful of Shijo Kingo's character, the Daishonin also thoroughly cautions him not to display his temper.

"He then continues: 'Live so that all the people of Kamakura will say in your praise that Nakatsukasa Saburo Saemon-no-jo [Shijo Kingo] is diligent in the service of his lord, in the service of Buddhism, and in his concern for other people' (WND-1, 851). Here, the Daishonin is urging him to show brilliant actual proof of victory and gain the trust and praise of others."
