“Bhikṣus! I will collect Bodhisattvas and Śrāvakas and expound Myōhō Renge Kyō to them when I realize that the time of my Nirvāṇa is drawing near, that the living beings have become pure in heart, that they can understand the truth of the Void by firm faith, and that they have already entered deep into dhyāna-concentration. No one in the world can attain [true] extinction by the two vehicles. [True] extinction can be attained only by Myōhō Renge Kyō.
