They will be bound by seven cords of iron and dragged by the two wardens of hell to the court of Yama, the lord of hell. While in hell, they will suspect that they had been brought before Yama because they slandered the Lotus Sutra then quickly they will set aside all their songs in honor of Daisaku Ikeda; their ill-gotten gains from the members' sincere donations; their Shingon type practice for material gain; and their tantric Guru Yoga. Instead, they will chant the passage from the Lotus Sutra that begins, “Now this threefold world is all my [Shakyamuni's] domain", whereupon the cords that bound them will fall away and they will be returned to life.*
*A passage from Repaying Debts of Gratitude in its modern context.
