The Nichiren Buddhist monk Nisshin,14th century.

Nichiren Buddhism (Nichiren-kei sho shuha) is a branch of Mahayana Buddhism based on the teachings of the 13th century Japanese Buddhist reformer Nichiren (1222-1282). Nichiren Buddhism is based on the Lotus Sutra, which teaches that all people have an innate Buddha nature and are therefore inherently capable of attaining enlightenment in their current form and present lifetime. Nichiren Buddhism is a comprehensive term covering several major schools and many sub-schools. Nichiren Buddhists believe that the spread of Nichiren's teachings and their effect on practitioners' lives will eventually bring about a peaceful, just, and prosperous society.
