I have a question for the monks of the Jodo sect!
I've heard that ascetic practices other than nembutsu are miscellaneous practices. So is it better not to do Rokuhara Mitsu?

Let's do it to the extent possible.
I'm sure it will benefit you.
Also, it helps me to recite nembutsu.

I feel like chanting Nembutsu naturally becomes an ascetic practice
As Miyake-san says, I think it's a good thing to keep in mind Rokuhara Mitsu to the extent possible while chanting nembutsu. If you can chant more nembutsu by focusing on Rokuhara Mitsu, I think that would be good. Also, I think life by chanting Nembutsu is similar to Rokuhara Mitsu. Namu Amida Buddha
Nembutsu is Rokuhara Mitsu
They do nembutsu (altruism) for “charity,” do “jiji” (adjust their egoism), become unbelievable with “Shinobi Niku” (sorry, the characters don't come out now), continue to chant “devotion,” enter “zen” (nembutsu sanmu = deep state of meditation), and awaken to “wisdom” (Omawa Kyokei, egalitarian intellect, mystical observation wisdom, narusaku wisdom), so nembutsu is six haramitsu, right?
