"The Priest to whom we must devote our lives (Namu) ... is Namu Nikko
Shonin, the Great Leader of the Propagation of the Essential
Teachings, the general Head Priest of the ten thousand years of the
Latter Day of the Law, and the founder of the Temple who received the
conferral of the Law, as well as the Master Nichimoku Shonin, who
transmitted the Law and who is the Head Priest of the entire world to
which we devote our lives, as well as all of the successive masters,
who are the direct successors to the conferral of the Law." 26th
Nichiren Shoshu High Priest, Nichikan Shonin, Toke Sanne Sho [Writing
on the Three Robes of this Sect]

Yet SGI counterfeits and worships one of Nichikan Shonin's Gohonzon.

Go figure.

The problem for you guys in Nichiren Shoshu is the following:

The statement by Nichikan Shonin 26th would apply, if there were a
priest of the Nichiren Shu Komon School (Fuji School) left alive
today. But there are none.

1. Since all priests, and especially the High Priest, of the Nichiren
Shu Komon School were required to follow all 26 of the 26 Admonitions
to be priests of that school ... there are, unfortunately, no priests
left alive to look up to. Nichikan was the last good priest of that
school, in that he followed the 26 Admonitions closely.

2. And, of course, since the corrupted remnants of that school were
merged with all the Nichiren sects at the time of the Meiji
Restoration in 1867, and furthermore, were only reconstituted in 1912
with the brand new, and never before in 750 years existing, name of
Nichiren Shoshu, there is nothing left of Nikko's School of Buddhism,
but the teachings themselves, the Gohonzon, and the DaiGohonzon (and
some Temples, of course, for Temple followers to follow).

3. A copy is not a counterfeit, since there is no valid priest since
Nichikan to open the eyes of a Gohonzon in a ceremony, and Nichikan,
himself, opened the eyes of the one that the SGI uses, by enscribing
it with his enlightenment, for the original individual who was to
receive it. And we of the SGI open the eyes of our Gohonzon by our
Bodhisattva practice, and by chanting to it sincerely for Kosen Rufu,
now, as opposed to when the time arrives that Nikken's wife has built
enough houses.

4. By using the Nikken Gohonzon, the Nikken sect (what was Nichiren
Shoshu under Nittatsu Shonin) is actually using a Gohonzon whose eyes
are closed, since it was enscribed by Nikken Shonin, who slandered the
Dai-Gohonzon as counterfeit, and sundered his invalid sect from the
Buddhist Order, the laity of the SGI.

5. Furthermore, since members of the Nikken sect (what was Nichiren
Shoshu) eschew the Bodhisattva practice of sincerely pursuing Kosen
Rufu activities, and instead practice like Pratyabuddhas or
forest-dwelling monks: by polishing their lives but not aggressively
propagating the Law (why else to polish our lives?), they could not
open the eyes of a Gohonzon enscribed by an enlightened direct
successor to Nichiren Daishonin, anyway.

Okay, a little lesson for Derek Juhl.

Nikko, then 3rd HP, then next one...etc...UNTIL we get to Nichikan
(26th). Who set things right again (according to NST too).

Then you get normal again. NO out there priests or other Buddhisms
thanks to Nichikan, he set the teachings of Nichiren straight and
since 26th HP Nichikan did that, things go normal again...That is
until Nikken, and the Zen Cemetary...HELLOOooo

CLINCHER, SO isn't it natural to go back to Nichikan when an HP
slanders and excommunicates 10,000,000 people and his lay leaders
AFTER he is the ONE who officiates at a ZEN CEREMONY (other
Buddhisms)?

Then he blames "Ikeda" which he didn't kick out before.....when he
admitted he should have....hellllloooo, either why wait (money) or
actually do it because it was wrong still...Hellooooo

Like I said, if Mr. Ikeda was still bad, then why WAIT? So Nikken
Shonin kicks out Mr. Ikeda, the person he excommunicates for noticing
NIKKEN SHONIN officiate at a Zen cemetary and then Nikken Shonin
calls IKEDA the slanderer.
GOOD ONE

In Ikedas camp, No one went to any churches in SGI,. no one in SGI
officiated at any other religious setting that I know of ,unless to
intermingle community wise, with NO OFFICIATIONS religiously..
Certainly not to officiate at a BUDDHIST ceremony.

Look it was NICHIREN who said NO, not Mr. Ikeda, he was trying to
follow orders...Hellooooo

Yet, NIkken gets EVEN and excommunicates both him and US.

Nice one, hatred, grudges, slander.
