"In The Record of the Orally Transmitted Teachings, the Daishonin declares:

"'Now when Nichiren and his followers perform ceremonies for the deceased, reciting the Lotus Sutra and chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, the ray of light from the daimoku reaches all the way to the hell of incessant suffering and makes it possible for them [the deceased] to attain Buddhahood then and there. (OTT, 17)'

"Through our daimoku, we can guide even those residing in the world of hell to attain Buddhahood."
