“World-Honored One! I heard Myōhō Renge Kyō, which you expounded in this Sahā World, from a remote world in which lives Treasure-Power-Virtue-Superior-King Buddha. I came here with many hundreds of thousands of billions of Bodhisattvas in order to hear and receive Myōhō Renge Kyō. World-Honored One! Tell me how the good men or women who live after your extinction will be able to obtain Myōhō Renge Kyō”
The Buddha said to Universal-Sage Bodhisattva:
“The good men or women will be able to obtain Myōhō Renge Kyō after my extinction if they do the following four things: 1. secure the protection of the Buddhas, 2. plant the roots of virtue, 3. reach the stage of steadiness [in proceeding to enlightenment], and 4. resolve to save all living beings. The good men or women will be able to obtain Myōhō Renge Kyō after my extinction if they do these four things.”
Myōhō Renge Kyō Promise for Aug. 22, 2025
In my lifetime or after my extinction
Some will slander Myōhō Renge Kyō,
And despise the person
Who reads or recites
Or copies or keeps Myōhō Renge Kyō.
They will hate him,
Look at him with jealousy,
And harbor enmity against him.
Listen! I will tell you
How they will be punished.When their present lives end,
They will fall into the Avici Hell.
They will live there for a kalpa,
And have their rebirth in the same hell.
This rebirth of theirs will be repeated
For innumerable kalpas.
