The Nichikan "Gohonzon" and a carton of "cigarettes"

I bought a carton of cigarettes from a guy in a train station in Rome for twenty bucks. A few minutes later I opened the carton and it was stuffed with hay. Likewise, the Nichikan "Gohonzon" contains not the enlightened nature of the Eternal Buddha but rather the benighted nature of Nichikan who called Shakyamuni Buddha "a cast-off Buddha".
