In the daily practice of Nichiren Buddhism, the Ten Factors are recited three times. This is done to acknowledge each of the Three Truths of Emptiness, Provisional Reality, and the Middle Way. The first recitation acknowledges that all Ten Factors are ultimately empty because they are nothing apart from the flow and process of the Ten Worlds that they describe. The second recitation acknowledges that all Ten Factors do have a provisional existence because their activity allows the Ten Worlds to manifest. The third recitation acknowledges that all Ten Factors are expressions of the Middle Way.
