Nichiren Shoshu's use of "Teachings Hidden in the Depths" [Montei] is false and self serving.

The Nichiren Shoshu has changed the principle of Hidden in the Depths [Montei] in order to change Nichiren's doctrines of Buddha and Transmission. According to Nichiren, the Three Great Secret Laws are "hidden" in the Lotus Sutra but thanks to Nichiren, according to Nichiren himself, "Now everything has been revealed." The Nichiren Shoshu have extrapolated Montei to mean the teachings hidden in the depths of Nichiren's writings. Their use of "Teachings Hidden in the Depths" is false and self serving.
