"Tamashii" means "intent." However, the westerns distort this as being a weak term. When actually Ki (Ch'i) is synonymous with life Tamashii, meaning life force. Soul is more of a Christian term used in the meaning of the spirit of the dead. When the Japanese generally refer to it as, "Mitsugo no-tamashii-hyaku-made" (tamashii of a 3-year old, which remains unchanged until one reaches 100); it also means "Katana wa bushi no tamashii" (The spirit of the samurai is the sword).Therefore, one should write the Odaimoku down the center of white paper, and sign your name only at the bottom as Nichiren did having it join the Odaimoku. Then using a thumb print with ink to seal them together. You have thus placed your own intent in sumi ink as the cause for your enlightenment without all the parasitic entities. This is best expressed through our own calligraphy in ink by our own hand and volition. I recommend black ink only. Only your name. Most sincerely! Rev.
