This is Nichiren Daishonin, the founder of Nichiren Buddhism 日蓮大聖人, and Sanbōson 三宝尊 (the Three Treasures). This is a professional display, featuring a stupa with the words "Namu Myoho Renge Kyo 南無妙法蓮華経" inscribed in the center, Amida Buddha on the left, and Amida Buddha on the right, as the "Three Treasures," and a statue of Nichiren Shonin in the foreground. It is thought to date from the Meiji to Taisho period, about 100-150 years ago. Nichiren Shonin (1222-1282) was a monk active during the Kamakura period and the founder of the Nichiren sect (Hokke sect). He began training at Seichoji Temple in Chiba Prefecture at the age of 12, and became a monk at the age of 16. At the age of 16, Nichiren developed new teachings that overturned the preconceived ideas of the Buddhist world. He was convinced throughout his life that the Lotus Sutra was the only teaching that could save people, and he dedicated his life to chanting and spreading its essence, "Namu Myoho Renge Kyo (Odaimoku)." In times of chaos, he placed importance on the present world and preached the teaching of "instant enlightenment in this body," which allows anyone to attain Buddhahood. Although initially rejected, his teachings form one of the dominant traditions of Japanese Buddhism today. He overcame numerous persecutions and his teachings have been passed down to the present day.
