What happens to a person who is not a Nichiren believer when he dies?
Murano (June 6, 1996)
He will be sent to an evil region. But if his friends chant the Daimoku for his salvation, he will be saved from there, and sent to the Buddha world.

What happens to us Nichiren Buddhists when we die?
Murano (June 6, 1996)
We can join the Sangha accompanying the Eternal Sakyamuni Buddha, who is expounding the Wonderful Dharma on Mt. Sacred Eagle in the Purified Saha World. The Buddha says in the Lotus Sutra (Second edition of Murano’s The Lotus Sutra, pp. 246-247) “When they see me seemingly pass away, make offerings to my sariras, adore me, admire me, become devout, upright and gentle, and wish to see me with all their hearts at the cost of their lives, I reappear on Mt. Sacred Eagle with my Sangha….”
We can enjoy peaceful and eternal life in the Purified Saha World when we die.
