Background


This letter shows that Nichiren Daishonin himself had made a copy of his On Establishing the Correct Teaching for the Peace of the Land and had likely asked Toki Jōnin to keep it for him. Here he asks that another copy be made and sent to him, and suggests the possibility that the copy may now be in the possession of someone other than Toki. The year and recipient of this letter are unknown.
