Awaji Nichiken (淡路日賢, 1243–1338) was a disciple of Nichiren who studied under Nichigen and founded Honjoji (本成寺) in Sanjō, Niigata in 1309. He was granted mandala 52 of the Nichiren Shonin Gohonzon Catalogue.[2]

He is not to be confused with another Nichiken, born 1393, whose birth name was Daisuke Gakutō (学頭大輔).[3]
