"You spew negativity like a venomous snake" -- Anonymous SGI leader

"It is not as the Three Worlds see the Three Worlds." (Lotus Sutra Chapter 16) You see it as spewing negativity while actually, it is the truth for saving the masses of beings. As the Lotus Sutra is the living body of Shakyamuni, the Gosho is the living body of Nichiren Daishonin. We choose to read the Lotus Sutra as Nichiren did and we are criticized, as was he. It is to be expected. Most of the so-called practitioners of the Lotus Sutra are disciples and believers of Nichiren in name only. Conceitedly, they read the Lotus Sutra in their own manner while going against the teachings of the Supreme Votary. They change the very fundamentals of his teachings:They throw out Shakyamuni Buddha of the 16th Chapter of the Lotus Sutra; they chant Namu Myoho renge kyo while asserting Myoho renge kyo has lost its power; they proclaim that it is no longer the Latter Age; and they curry the favor of both the religious and secular authorities. Say what you will but this is true and not empty. "We are the fathers of this world who save from the various sufferings and travails."
