Nichiren Shoshu teaches the specific and general transmission as a vertical [specific] line from high priest to high priest and a horizontal [general] line from high priest to believer.
SGI teaches that the transmission is a pyramid with Daisaku Ikeda at the top, the leaders in the middle, and the general members at the base.

The Lotus Sutra and Nichiren teach that the specific transmission is a point [Shakyamuni Buddha of the Juryo Chapter of the Lotus Sutra to Nichiren] and the general transmission is a sphere [infinite lines emanating in all directions from the single point]
