When one person stands up based on the shared vow of mentor and disciple, two, three, and eventually a hundred like-minded people will follow. This is the eternal formula of kosen-rufu. As the Daishonin writes:
At first only Nichiren chanted Nam-myoho–renge-kyo, but then two, three, and a hundred followed, chanting and teaching others. Propagation will unfold this way in the future as well. Does this not signify “emerging from the earth”?
