In Soka Gakkai's screwed up translations we read, from the Opening of the Eyes,
"And when the two characters for namu are prefixed to Myoho-renge-kyo, or the Lotus Sutra of the Wonderful Law, we have the formula Nam-myoho-renge-kyo."
Here we see, 2 + 5 = 6
The actual translation is,
"And when the two characters for namu are prefixed to Myoho-renge-kyo, or the Lotus Sutra of the Wonderful Law, we have the formula Namu-myoho-renge-kyo."
Here we see, 2 + 5 = 7
Nichiren NEVER wrote Nam Myoho renge kyo, not on his Gohonzon nor in his writings, not once in the 45 years of his preaching life and he inscribed several hundred Gohonzon and several hundred writings.
