The organizational structure in Nichiren Lotus Sutra Buddhism

"Our beloved organisation for a long period of time, after the
breakaway from the priesthood wrote a lot about this issue of
democracy of faith. In the UK,observing the way our organisation
operates,any idea of democracy of faith is at best a myth and mere
words on paper. The organisation is getting more and more rigid,
autocratic and hierarchical with just a top down imposition of edits.
We have leaders many of whom see their positions as positions of power
and being better in faith than others. In the UK unless you subscribe
to Mr Ikeda as a mentor and urge members to focus on him instead of
their lives you can never be a leader. In what way is democracy of
faith practiced in your countries? In what way does the way our
beloved organisation do things differently from the priesthood? How can
we resolve these issues in such a way as not to destroy the SGI? Lets
have a good, warm, and heartfelt discussion of these issues for the
future benefit of the SGI." -- SGI UK member

It would be better to destroy the SGI or to leave. It is not so much the lack of democracy. It is the lie that SGI is democratic. Nichiren Lotus Sutra Buddhism is not democratic. Shakyamuni Buddha [Lotus Sutra] and Nichiren Daishonin are the leaders and we are to follow their teachings, direction, and example unquestionably in order to obtain Buddhahood.
