“On Chanting the Daimoku of the Lotus Sutra”

“In the Latter Day of the Law, there are many who do not possess the
seed of Buddhahood. There are only a few who possess it. Thus, there
is no doubt that the people [in the Latter Day of the Law] will fall into
the evil paths. [Since they are going to fall into the evil paths one way
or another,] we should strongly teach and make them listen to the
Lotus Sutra and let them form a poison-drum relationship with it. Thus,
now is certainly the time to create a reverse relationship by
propagating the Lotus Sutra.”

(Gosho, p. 231)
