Keeping It Real
December 2, 2012 by allthingsnichiren
I went to a SGI-USA World Peace meeting today (in a major US city) and kept count on the number of times I heard the following words/phrases:
President Ikeda/Sensei Ikeda/Daisaku Ikeda/etc.: I lost count. Seriously, I gave up on counting at the 20/21 mark.
Daishonin: 1
Nichiren: 0
Lotus Sutra: 1
Kosen rufu: 1
Gosho: 1
Shakyamuni: 0
Shakyamuni: 0
Buddhism/Buddhist/Buddha: 0 (again, seriously)"
This perfectly mirrors my own experience and one of the main reasons I left the SGI.
