"On the other hand, it is the members of the priesthood today that have become "devils" and "those in league with devils" who seek to halt the flow of kosen-rufu and who are destroying Buddhism. They are enemies of kosen-rufuand enemies of Buddhism who seek to render the Buddha's words meaningless.
"For this reason, we must resolutely crush [Bokumetsu] them. Between the Buddha and devilish functions, there is no middle ground. If we fail to fight, or if our effortsare only half-hearted, then we will become allies of these devilish functions." May 23, 1993 speech by Daisaku Ikeda, Kyushu Ikeda Auditorium, Fukuoka City, Japan World Tribune, June 28, 1993 (p.4)
