Nichiren Shoshu's and SGI's Zen-like transmission

They favor a mind to mind [or person to person] transmission similar to the transmission from the first Zen Patriarch Bodhidharma to the second Patriarch Hui-ko, a transmission outside the scriptures. They are the epitome of the zennification of Nichiren's teachings, something Nichiren warned us about. If you hear mention of the importance of mind to mind or heart to heart transmission in reference to the teachings of Nichiren Daishonin, you can be sure that it originated from Taisekeji/SGI and not from the Lotus Sutra and Nichiren.
