“How Those Initially Aspiring to the Way Can Attain Buddhahood through the Lotus Sutra”
(Monthly Gosho Passage – July 2010)
The people of today in any event already reject the Lotus Sutra, and because of that error they will undoubtedly fall into hell. Therefore one should by all means persist in preaching the Lotus Sutra and causing them to hear it. Those who put their faith in it will surely attain Buddhahood, while those who slander it will establish a "poison-drum relationship" with it and will likewise attain Buddhahood.
