A man of shallow faith pretends to have right faith and is contemptuous towards other followers, so as to harm the faith of others. Leave such people alone. By the intention of the King of the Brahma Heaven, Indra, and other deities, I believe that such a time will certainly come when all the people of Japan will simultaneously believe in the Lotus Sūtra. I am sure that many people then will say, “I have believed in this sūtra all along.”
