Nam – Myoho – Renge – Kyo
You have followed Nichiren, however, and met with difficulties as a
result. It pains me deeply to think of your anguish. Gold can
neither be burned by fire nor corroded or swept away by water, but
iron is vulnerable to both. A wise person is like gold and a fool
like iron. You are like pure gold because you embrace the “gold” of
the Lotus Sutra. The Lotus Sutra reads in part, “Sumeru is the
loftiest of all mountains. The Lotus Sutra is likewise the loftiest
of all the sutras.” It also states, “The good fortune of the believer
cannot be burned by fire or washed away by water.”
