thanks for the responses.insightful.love the sgi. as well as the nichiren shu and sho shu, tendai all the wonderful branches of the Buddhas family tree and its many colorful leaves.still i bristle at the factioning of the Nichiren schools.we only copied our brothers over seas by drawing dividing lines here too...but maybe its better this way? for now i will chant for peace my own and for others in solitude.

In its early days, the Soka Gakkai was despised and laughed at in Japanese society as a gathering of the sick and poor. Josei Toda, my life mentor, took this as a point of pride, however, and declared with confidence:

[Theepakorn2030]

“The true mission of religion is to bring relief to the sick and the poor. That is the purpose of Buddhism. The Soka Gakkai is the ally and friend of the common people, a friend to the unhappy. However much we may be looked down on, we will continue to fight for the sake of such people.” Daisaku Ikeda, "Faith in Revolution" : An Interview, Tricycle Magazine

不況も創価学会のせいってかｗ　頭大丈夫？

[KidRaza]

how do you cut out the priesthood and yet keep the rituals? if you take the history out form under it isnt it just hollow?what stops me from making gohonzons and starting my own little sub-sect? SILLY ISNT IT?either way sgi or the priesthood at that center of all this are just the egos of two people.

[kankuch0]

@KidRaza "how do you cut out the priesthood and yet keep the rituals?" Simple. Revert to the practices set down by the founder. Excise any superfluous traditions created by those who have made careers of positioning themselves between the disciples ('Bodhisattvas of the Earth') and the eternal Buddha.

[kankuch0]

@KidRaza "if you take the history out form under it isnt it just hollow?" No history has been taken out of anything. The movement of active Buddhism has always been one of evolution. The tradition of Nichiren Buddhism is 'hon nin myo' - the future determined by the actions we take now, not constantly looking over our shoulder at what has gone before. We're practising a living religion, not running a museum.

[kankuch0]

@KidRaza "what stops me from making gohonzons and starting my own little sub-sect?" Nothing really. People have been doing just that ever since the death of Nichiren. The longterm success of your sect will depend on the degree to which you share the heart of the Buddha and to which you can inspire your disciples to do the same. Come back and let us know how you get on.

[DeShonDeShon]

I agree, Fudgen.

[ytkn666]

信仰の自由を理解してるまともな宗教団体なら、こんなに日本の人­々から嫌われないっっつーのｗ

[fudgen1]

I have studied Christianity, Eckankar, Judaism, and Scientology before Nichiren Daishonin Buddhism. In my opinion, there is no spiritual practice that is as all encompassing of all human spirit as ND BUDDHISM.

I pity the fool talking s**t about Soka Gakkai International. SGI is what this world needs. Yes, I will defend Nichiren Buddhism, thank you.

確かに大作は天才だよ。じゃないとあんだけの人間騙せるわけない­もんなｗｗｗ

批判する奴って　ガキ!　その学会の歴史とかすべて知ってから書き込めよ!

まあ　ガキが書いてるんだろうけど。。。　信仰の自由でしょ!

知らずに罪を作るのは恐ろしい。

[tokumas]

CULT! It's not even Buddhism. Only Buddha's enlightenment is authentic in Buddhism. And the enlightenment was pure and not even categorized as one religion. Other religious groups which is Buddha wannabe idolizing Buddha sculptures are bullcrap working for money.

金返せ！親の財務数千万円、返せ！

[MacoutesGabber]

Nicheren Shoshu can shoshu my dick. Sokka Gakkai can Sokka my cock. The Gohonzon can Go to hell. This is an evil cult. Talking to a piece of paper inside a box isn't going to do shit. You have to do things for yourselves. Stop this stupid-ass shit!!!

[alHalwima]

@MacoutesGabber Even so, you're not a real Satanist. Besides, your enemy is not these people.

[ikachanusa]

アメリカ人の信仰者結構いるみたいなんだけど、でもやっぱり日本­人が多くを占めているんだって。

近くのハウジングでね、決まった曜日に集まって南無妙法蓮華経を­「誰かの家」でやってるから

近所の人たちが気持ち悪いし大迷惑だ、頭がおかしくなるって言っ­てたよ。

大金かかるカルトなのによく信用してるねって思うけど、まぁ何を­信じようが勝手だからいいか。

いい宗教、教えならひとに迷惑や不信感を与えないのが常識でしょ­、けどこちらの団体

学会の人たちって迷惑かけまくりｗ　それに気付かないなんておかしいね。

同じ池田でも池田模範堂は大好きだぞ。　ムヒにお世話になってるからね。

[thriftshopninja]

Well, it's not "lyrics". They are chantinga sutra from buddhist teachings. This one, The Lotus Sutra talks about the equality of all people. It would be odd for kamikaze pilots to chant about equality before fighting in a war based on supremacy ideals.

The pilots were being fed obsolete samurai codes taken out of context, and being told to apply them to themselves. This is interesting in the fact that most of the samurai codes were written by the samurai after they were defunct, for nostalgia.

[justicewhenwronged]

wow ... wespozo, how did you know the kamikaze pilots chanted similar lyrics? ... did you speak to someone who had it documented? ...

[wespozo]

Cool music... to bad about the brainwashing. WW2 Kamikaze pilots probably chanted the same cool lyrics.

[thriftshopninja]

Actually, Toda, the leader of this religion at the time, was jailed during WW2 for opposing the militaristic practices of the government in favor of promoting peace.

The government were selling dyed-in patriotism while this religion preached that all people were equal. After rustling to many feathers, they sent the president of the organization to jail for thought crimes

. I respect others opinions on religions, but your comment was just so inaccurate I had to comment.

[wespozo]

Actually my comment was not that inaccurate. The Kamikaze pilots where brainwashed religious freaks that chanted similar lyrics!

The rest of your post is interresting, thanks for sharing:)

[nimatoike]

Actually, the leader @ that time was T. Makiguchi. J. Toda, among many other leaders of the religion were also arrested as you mentioned.

[catandpiddle]

thank you. very interesting.
