They focus their prayers towards the scroll and chant the words Nam Myoho Renge Kyo (some sects say Namu followed by Myoho Renge Kyo). The scroll measures approx: 19.0 X 48.20 inches. The scroll offered here is dated 1897 and is a version of the Nichiren mandala issued by the KEMPON HOKKE SHU branch of Nichiren Buddhism.
