Nichiren Page 208, Volume II (from Explaining the Causation of the Ten Worlds, written in 1260) <br /><br />What are you all waiting for? The end of your life? Are you not even as wise as "the lowest category of ordinary mortals"? How long will you have to chant and even if you vocalize the silent U or not, to realize you always have been a Buddha?<br /><br />Through off your transient nature and reveal your true identity.<br /><br />Anyone on this site can be a fool and claim this writing too is not the "authentic writing of Nichiren own hands" but it won't change the truth of its words." -- Tim Janokos <br /><br />1). This writing is neither found in the Rokunai nor Rokugai collection of writings, so of course it is suspect. <br /><br />2). Please point out to me who in SGI has attained Buddhahood, one endowed with the ten honorific attributes of the Buddha?<br /><br />3). You still haven't addressed the issues of the Code of Conduct for SGI "Buddhas" and the need for a Buddha to receive guidance.<br /><br />4). As for your other post that I am finally getting to, <br /><br />"Your statement about letting the "eternal buddha, Shakyamuni" into your heart, sounds a whole hell of a lot like Christianity, with a new mascot."<br /><br />5). I could be flippant and say, better a lion then a tapeworm [Ikeda] for a mascot but it would be better to get to the point. You should rather take it up with Nichiren who stated, <br /><br />"Yet it was not I, Nichiren, who made these three important pronouncements. Rather it was in all cases the spirit of the Thus Come One Shakyamuni that had entered into my body. And having personally experienced this, I am beside myself with joy." -- The Selection of the Time, one of Nichiren Daishonin's 5 major writings<br /><br />Obviously, you have never experienced such joy or you wouldn't berate Shakyamuni Buddha as a mascot nor confuse the meager joy of letting Daisaku Ikeda or Jesus into your heart with the absolute blissful joy of having Shakyamni Buddha enter your body. sakyamuni Buddha needs no permission to enter into the mind and bodies of a votary of Lotus Sutra. This is proof, neither you nor your fellow SGI members are votaries of the Lotus Sutra. You are votaries of Ikedaism. You are fools.Mark Rogowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05176132114346404556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2070186063250309253.post-47376983852628113492013-06-13T20:34:27.907-05:002013-06-13T20:34:27.907-05:00Did you catch the Chicago KOTO Reiki healer?Did you catch the Chicago KOTO Reiki healer?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2070186063250309253.post-37994912491742256782013-06-08T09:29:58.283-05:002013-06-08T09:29:58.283-05:00"Leaders are just there to serve the members...."Leaders are just there to serve the members."<br /><br />...and to earn big bucks off the members donations.

But anyway in the SGI leadership isn't really important, the members are the most important. Leaders are just there to serve the members and to help the organization have some continuity of perspective and practice, and to help offer guidance to people struggling in their faith. <br /><br />The fact that as a vice regional leader I never heard of the idea of a "code of conduct" only means one of two things, either there is no such thing or if there is, it is just a guideline, like every other guideline given to leaders to help facilitate them in doing what is best for the members. When I was growing up in the 1970s in orange county, the hippy members and leaders used to wait until the Japanese members left the meetings before they went in the back room to smoke marijuana. Now if that is in some kind of code of conduct, that you should keep your pot smoking to your own time and not do it at meetings I think that would be OK, at least for the states where marijuana is still illegal. <br /><br />Also, in the 80s, when I was on the 4th story of a gymnastics 5 story tower and 3 guys on the 2nd level decided to go out in the back of the San Diego Sport's Arena and smoke out a little before going on stage and I knew and I was so scared they would drop me (luckily they didn't). <br /><br />So if such things like this that have happened in the past with members or leaders were in some kind of guide line book which might be called "a code of conduct," I think that would be a good thing for some people who are not that good at using common sense, but I have never heard of such a book or seen such a code of conduct. <br /><br />Now if there is one that I have never been privy to, I don't see what the problem with that would be. Especially if the organization wants to avoid law suits from people who happened to be leaders who might also not be too good and knowing what is common sense or not and just become someone is given a leadership position in any organization doesn't mean they are immune to making stupid mistakes. Leaders are just as human and fallible as any members are, and for an organization that is growing by leaps and bounds to many other religious organization it is very easy to have new leaders that need some basic guide lines to know how not to conduct themselves and leaders.

If you are ignorent of it, you should thank me for enlightening you. If you are lying, it is in character for SGI leaders. If a vice YMD REGIONAL leader is not a high level leader [just under national leader] then we don't understand the concept of high level leader. Were what you say true, then even senior leaders such as Chapter and Area leaders are low level leaders, to say nothing of Distict and Group leaders. Is this what low regard your National leaders have for your efforts, are you employing false humility, or are you giving yourself an out that your views are not necessarily those of the Soka Gakkai? Were it the latter, it is a most cowardly stance.Mark Rogowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05176132114346404556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2070186063250309253.post-26534985014645375642013-05-08T22:13:42.629-05:002013-05-08T22:13:42.629-05:00I never engaged in "self promotion." It...I never engaged in "self promotion." It was Nancy AKA Buku since the beginning of this post that has been promoting me. (I simply thanked her for that unneeded promotion and told her the results of that promotion.) Calling me a "high level SGI" person in the first post? I was 13 years ago a vice regional leader of the young men's division in Orange County, California and an area leader of the YMD in the same area at the same time, before I resigned both positions (promoting a chapter YMD deader to my area position) to become a full time student at Soka University of America in 2001. Although I went to some 5 by 5 meetings with national and zone level leaders at the time, I would not call that a "high level" position. Since graduating from SUA in 2005, I have lived in Japan, and because I am not fluent in Japanese, I have not taken on any official position ever, even I was unofficial leader of the English Group in Sendai for a while, not much of a high level position. So this whole article has just been riddled with falsehood by Nancy Buku and others and all I have tried to do is set the record straight like any ethical Buddhist would as far as Buku Nancy's claim of there being some code of conduct for SGI leaders, I was never "high up" enough to ever be informed of such a thing.
