Nichiren Shoshu's zennification of the Dharma


"My contention is that Nichiren Daishonin recognized that Nikko Shonin completely understood his mind, that Nikko Shonin recognized that Nichimoku Shonin completely understood his mind, and so on." -- Nichiren Shoshu member 

Like the Zen transmission from Bodhidharma to Hui-ko? Taisekeji is the epitomy of the zennification of the Daishonin's teachings, exactly what Nichiren Daishonin warned us about. One should be very wary of mind to mind or even oral transmissions, especially in the realm of Nichiren Daishonin's Lotus Sutra based Buddhism. If you hear mention of the importance of mind to mind transmission in reference to the teachings of Nichiren Daishonin, you can be sure that it originated from Taisekeji.
