Adept of the Soka Gakkai leaves the organization believes that it is devoted to fanaticism. His wife for that reason throws him out of the house and he tries to commit suicide lighting himself and his wife on fire.

That religious sect that is conquering the Basilicata

What is happening to the followers of the Soka Gakkai?

"A man of 59, after a dispute with the partner, took to the streets and set himself on fire, in power: rescued by some police officers, was admitted to hospital in the capital San Carlo with burns in various parts of the body, but is not life threatening The incident occurred near the church of San Giovanni Bosco, the presence of many people: the man argued with the woman and took to the road with a gas can and a lighter in his hand. "This is a statement Ansa 14 December 2013. What is behind this apparent history of" madness of love "?

The man and his partner.  The man who attempted to set themselves on fire was a follower of the religious sect Soka Gakkai, the same as her companion, she is a frequent visitor. He abandons the religious group recently deemed "dangerous and suited to fanaticism." But perhaps not suspect that the adepts of the sect, when someone gets in the way, consider it an "enemy." The companion knocked him out of the house and the spring for exactly this reason. It would seem that cases of separation due to this reason are growing in power and in Basilicata. In first place loyalty to the sect, which becomes reason for living, whatever the cost, even the separation from spouse. Critics believe that the sect face trivial proselytism "as do all those who want to hook up an unfortunate / a with promises, big words and false hopes." Main thing, once joined the organization, is to convince their family, husband / wife, father / mother, children. If you fail in the conversion of the family, never mind, just to understand what the organization is capable of hindering the unconverted and whether or not it accepts the practice of kin. If not interfere is a person who can accept, but if you avoid attacks the practitioner to all the followers of the group to go in that house. It 'important to avoid questions that might put doubts to those who have just started. There should be no doubt.

When your spouse is "the enemy."  Anyone who allows to speak ill of or contradict the mystical grandeur of the law of the Gohonzon and the lighting of the Soka Gakkai practitioners can not be their friend and be isolated in any way. The isolation before hitting the predestined person is very simple and is put into practice through "fellow believers" in which the person has to hit a spouse from credit and confidence. These people give "Guide", that is advice on how to behave. Not acting alone but are accompanied by others that simultaneously make heavy use of "love bombing", made ​​by sms, email and direct conversations aimed to flatter the person plagiarized. This is enhanced with phrases like: "You are the light, you're the most wonderful person in the world, you're the partner / companion of life that I never had, an example of life ...". Result: marriages and families destroyed.

What is the Soka Gakkai?  The Italian Buddhist Institute Soka Gakkai (Society for value creation) in Italy brings together those who follow and practice the Buddhism taught by Nichiren. Peace Culture and Education.But on the websites created by the victims of the sect, that is, those who fight it, we get a different answer.The Soka Gakkai would be a trivial association para-Buddhist type Multi Level. And 'the classic cult of Santa Claus that is dedicated especially to conquer an important slice of consensus through the manipulation of the followers and the society they live in by entering his offices cult members. Critics fierce Soka Gakkai speak of money that run, the purchase of books and objects of worship and costly products from the same organization.Our source tells us of a costly contributions to the heads of the organization.

As you practice Buddhism Soka Gakkai?  The practice in Nichiren Buddhism is divided into two parts: practice for oneself and practice for others. The practice itself is the chanting of Nam-myoho-renge-kyo (Daimoku) and two main chapters of the Lotus Sutra (Gongyo). The practice for others is to spread the message Buddhist (shakubuku) offering to others a tool to improve their lives, it is also a means to develop compassion individual. But others believe that "practice that the sect continues only and is based almost exclusively in the" play "all the time as it is located in a little book that is written in ancient Chinese and Sanskrit (but pronounced in Japanese), would eventually realize the goals land in this life (in full heresy with Buddhism). Of the thousands of existing Sutra sect split up just two chapters of the Lotus Sutra. Essential in this practice is to understand nothing of what is recited but acting and just. Indeed better not ask questions out of place. The Dalai Lama says that instead, while reciting a mantra, it is good to think about its meaning, since the meaning of the syllables, whatever the mantra is great and vast. Reciting a mantra at the speed of light, you do not even have time to think about what you are doing. Stuff stoned.

The supreme leader of the sect . Daisaku Ikeda (1928), is the current president of the Soka Gakkai International E 'a particularly prolific intellectual figure, known even outside of the religious association of which he is president, in particular its proposals for philosophical dialogues with representatives of different culture and science and one of the first theorists of sustainable development. Daisaku Ikeda is also known for the detailed peace proposals, articulated in reflections, ranging from the spiritual to the ecological, economic and political, which annually presents to the General Assembly of the United Nations that has awarded a Peace Award. But even here the opinion of those who believe they are victims of the sect, is different. According to them Ikeda is one of the richest men in Japan. It has great political influence, but it is also a dark character for his past certainly not uplifting and educational. It is referred to by many as a "self-centered personality, a thirst for power and money." A man whose "purpose in life is peace" but that with the money of his disciples has tackled the politics of his country massively to the face of Buddhism. In short, Ikeda is the Master.

What promises the Soka Gakkai?  Seven of the rising sun, as the Soka Gakkai, make use of a strongly messianic message inserted in the religious conception of Japan, which is above all earthly, very concrete and tied to this world. It promises a long life, full of joy and health. Health which, in theory, you should get with the therapeutic power of the maximum leader of the sect, repeated constantly: "Everyone can get now and in this time the happiness"

The criticism of sectarianism.  The Soka Gakkai was in Italy included in the report of the Central Directorate for police prevention "Religious sects and new magical movements in Italy" written in 1997, which states, in general, that is "doctrines and ritual practices often far removed from denominations of origin ", and adding in particular that in the case of" Buddhism of the Soka Gakkai, based on the Lotus Sutra, the highest Buddhist, the Dalai Lama, does not recognize it. " In France a parliamentary committee in 1995 and 1999 (Guyard Report), and in Belgium a similar inquiry committee of the House of Representatives, in 1997, included the Soka Gakkai in a list of religious organizations which, according to commissions, to be construed as "sects" in all respects. The criticism of "sectarianism" have moved even by former members who accuse the Soka Gakkai of anti-social activities and human rights violations. Specifically, former members denounce: the lack of democracy within groups Soka, with every decision made ​​from above and a system of internal powers and responsibilities similar to the multilevel-marketing; the distance from orthodoxy traditional Buddhism and also the Buddhism of Nichiren; the exploitation of the working staff of the followers and the incentive to buy items sold by Soka Gakkai; mechanisms of mental conditioning analogous to those of other sects.
