"Answer: First, with regard to the object of devotion, one should inscribe the eight volumes of the Lotus Sutra, or one volume, or one chapter, or simply the daimoku, or title, of the sutra, and make that the object of devotion, as is indicated in the “Teacher of the Law” and “Supernatural Powers” chapters of the sutra. And those persons who are able to do so further should write out the names of the Thus Come One Shakyamuni and the Buddha Many Treasures, or fashion images of them, and place these on the left and right of the Lotus Sutra. And if they are further able to do so, they should fashion images or write out the names of the Buddhas of the ten directions and the bodhisattva Universal Worthy and the others." -- On Reciting the Daimoku of the Lotus Sutra, considered by Nikko Shonin as one of the Ten Major Writings of Nichiren [Sho Hokke Daimoku Sho]
Please remember, nearly everything you learned in the Nichiren Shoshu amd the Soka Gakkai is wrong and half of what you learned in the Nichiren Shu and Honmon Butsuryu Shu. The Kempon Hokke is just a bunch of slanderers.
ReplyDeleteIf just half of the truth of what I learnt from Nichiren Shoshu , Sokka Gakkai and the rest of them can be put to good use in helping myself and others to see through the nonsense, well then that would be a good thing
ReplyDeleteYes. For me, its like a bike accident where one hits his head, is in a coma for a couple of weeks, and then starts wearing a bike helmet.
