April 17 WT (1998), speech by Daisaku Ikeda delivered March 13, 1998:
“In contrast, this Gosho passage states that Shakyamuni Buddha resides in the hearts of those with sincere faith. Read in terms of Nichiren Daishonin’s Buddhism, “Shakyamuni’ here refers to the original Buddha, Nichiren Daishonin himself.” p. 12, right hand column.
"In terms of Nichiren Daishonin's Buddhism"....but Nichiren stated very clearly that "Shakyamuni Buddha resides in the hearts of those with sincere faith" so how can changing Nichiren's Buddhism, be in terms of Nichiren's Buddhism? It can't.

"Nichiren said that but meant this" SGI and Nichiren Shoshu psuedo- Buddhism again rears its ugly head.
