Nichiren Daishonin the votary of the Lotus Sutra

Because I chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo with my own mouth, I have been reviled, struck, exiled, and had my life threatened. However, in spite of all this, I have continued to exhort others to do likewise. Am I not then a votary of the Lotus Sutra? 13/2

The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin
No Safety in the Threefold World
Written to Matsuno Rokuro Saemon on February 13, 1278
