Suffering of provisional teachings and doctrines are opened and merged with our original state of enlightenment chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo.”
Nichiren Daishonin writes: ““The principles of logic are addressed to
non-Buddhist believers. Such principles are in most cases associated with the Hinayana or specific teaching doctrines. In comparison to the teachings set forth in the Lotus, Flower Garland, and Nirvana sutras, these are intended to serve as an introduction to those higher teachings. They are designed as temporary measures to fit the particular capacities of the hearers and to lead and guide them. Their ultimate purpose is to enable non-Buddhists and followers of Hinayana teachings to come to an understanding of true principles.” [The Unanimous Declaration by the Buddhas of the Three Existences regarding the Classification of the Teachings and Which Are to Be Abandoned and Which Upheld] WND II: 315 (p.858) http://www.nichirenlibrary.org
Once encountering and embracing chanting “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo” incomplete self of past suffering is capable of surmounting all obstacles and obtain fulfillment and happiness in present form.
