The talk and the walk

We do not allow SGI to criticize us [here] because they have already been defeated by the cowardice of their leaders. This is an oasis where we pour the water of Law. Their criticisms can be likened to a new recruit criticizing the commanding general of the army. No one wants to hear their whining. Soka Gakkai leaders and members talk the talk but fail to walk the walk.

The talk: 1). "Through face to face dialogue one creates value." 2). "We will debate even an emperor to prove the righteousness of President Ikeda and the Soka Gakkai." 3)."Nothing is more important than actual proof and actual proof is found only in the Soka Gakkai." 4). "We are the sole inheritors of the heritage of the Law through the Three Presidents." 5). "If it weren't for President Ikeda and President Toda, you wouldn't have even heard of the Law." 6) "In the Soka Gakkai no prayer goes unanswered." 7). Citing over and over again, "The purpose of the appearance in this world of Shakyamuni Buddha, the lord of teachings, lies in his behavior as a human being."

The walk: 1). Refusal to sanction face to face dialogues, for example, pressuring members of the orthodox sects to leave SGI community centers. 2). The cowardly refusal of Al Albergate and Greg Martin to debate even one common lay believer of Nichiren, let alone an emperor. 3). "The failure of SGI to acknowledge that faith in the Lotus Sutra itself constitutes actual proof. 4). Failure to follow the Lotus Sutra and the Gosho which are explicit that the heritage is received through the Law and not the person. 5). The SGI's lack of faith in the Lotus Sutra and Nichiren Daishonin who teach that we receive the Law from the Eternal Buddha Shakyamuni and are always born with our masters (Shakyamuni and Nichiren) throughout the universe. 6). Nearly every SGI prayer is unrealized leading to the 95% SGI attrition rate; 7). Instead of exhibiting the behavior of the Buddha, SGI members reside in the Worlds of Animality and Anger [Soka Group] while asserting that they are all Buddhas.

  1. In 2011 Tariq Hassan visited Boston SGI. He lead a meeting by popular request of SGI Boston members who were seeking an explanation for their inability to receive benefits that compared to those they received when beginning their practice--as long as 20 years ago. Tariq gave a lecture in the spirit of motivational speaker, Tony Robbins, encouraging members to create specific goals for themselves and follow through taking action until they were achieved. The following year, a YWD hanged herself within 48 hours of attending a discussion meeting and receiving guidance from her WD district leader. Another prominent YWD leader struck a pedestrian on the highway, returning from a SGI activity. The man was left paralyzed for life, identified as a homeless person, wandering without purpose. AND, still the leaders here in Boston demean and oust any member who questions the doctrines and guidance of SGI USA leaders.

    All SGI members should be made aware of the behavior of their degenerate leaders, who refuse to examine and defend their beliefs, which is tantamount to demeaning Nichiren, who devoted his life to clarifying the stature of Shakyamuni and the Lotus Sutra. Nichiren continued at great personal risk, SGI leaders won't even attempt what Nichiren did, despite their comfortable circumstances!
