Let \(\mathbb{H} P^n(c)\) be an \(n\)-dimensional quaternion projective space with constant quaternion sectional curvature \(c>0\) and \(M\) be a compact totally real minimal submanifold isometrically immersed in \(\mathbb{H} P^n(c)\). The authors prove two theorems. (1) If \(M\) is of dimension \(n\) and the Ricci curvature \(S\) of \(M\) satisfies \(S\geq {3(n-2) \over 16}c\), then either \(S={n-1 \over 4} c\) or \(S={3(n-2) \over 16}c\). For either case the submanifold \(M\) is determined. (2) If \(M\) is of dimension \(m\) and \(S\) satisfies \(S\geq \left( {m-1 \over 4} -{3(m+2) \over 8(2m+5)} \right)c\), then either \(S={m-1 \over 4}c\) or \(S=\left( {m-1 \over 4}- {3(m+2) \over 8(2m+5)} \right)c\). Again, \(M\) is determined for either case.
