Nichiren Buddhism - Nichiren's Writings

Nichiren's Writings

Nichiren was a prolific writer. His personal communications and writings to his followers as well as numerous treatises detail his view of the correct form of practice for the Latter Day of the Law (Mappō); lay out his views on other Buddhist schools, particularly those of influence during his lifetime; and elucidate his interpretations of Buddhist teachings that preceded his. These writings are collectively known as Gosho (go is an honorific prefix designating respect) or Goibun. Which of his writings are deemed authentic or apocryphal is also being treated different within the various schools of today's Nichiren Buddhism.
