When you face difficulties, the Odaimoku will lead you to a path to overcome these difficulties. When you have many troubles, it will lead you to a path to show what the cause of your suffering is. And when your life is being threatened, it will lead you to a secure place unconsciously. Also, the Lotus Sutra has a mystical power to save deceased spirits. At a funeral or memorial service, Odaimoku chanted by attendees transfers their rewards to the deceased spirits, making them calm and peaceful.
