Abstract

Description

These two priests are the heads of the Yuseiji sect. They explained that the common people cannot understand theology, they desire only health and protection from calamities, and success in their business and family activities. The simple service of chanting in adoration of the true teachings of the Buddha, and the efficacy of their holy water, satisfy the needs of the common people, according to these leaders of the Yuseiji sect.
