The two worms of the modern age

The Soka Gakkai and the Nichiren Shoshu are the two worms of this modern age. They are far more virulent and poisonous than the "six worms" of the Nara schools during Dengyo's time, the "three worms" Jikaku, Annen, and Eshin who lived between the time of Dengyo and the time of the Daishonin, and the "three worms" of the Zen, True Word, and Nembutsu schools during Nichiren's time.
