We learn that we live with the Buddha and walk on the path of our life with the Buddha. By doing so, we are involved in the eternal life of the Buddha. Now, we as cause and the Buddha as effect no longer theoretically but realistically become one. It is perfectly attaining Buddhahood with cause and effect existing simultaneously; with true cause and effect; with Ichinen Sanzen of Ji; with one’s present body; and with receiving and upholding the teaching of the Lotus Sutra. Therefore, it is not necessary for Odaimoku practitioners to achieve a certain stage (rank) or to practice for a long period of time, because one is directly involved in the Buddha’s life with one’s present body.
