"Question: What is the essential quality of the icchantikas [men of incorrigible disbelief]?
Answer: The rejection of scriptures." -- Mahayana Nirvana Sutra"
Another sutra maintains that those desirous of profit [GAIN] are icchantikas. Does the Soka Gakkai teaching of "Beauty, goodness, and GAIN" ring a bell?
By these standards, we may conclude that SGI members are icchantikas.
