Gongyo according to Nichiren Daishonin

Gongyo is the reality of the Trikaya or the Three Bodies of the Buddha in one. The Hoben-pon is the reality of the historical [Manifestation Buddha] specifically and our manifestations generally. The Jiga-ge is the reality of the Reward Body of the Buddha, the reality of the Buddha's eternal wisdom and compassion [specifically] and ours generally. The Daimoku is the Dharma Body of the Buddha specifically and ours generally. They do not exist as separate aspects of reality. They only have ultimate meaning as a unified whole.
