"Although the Buddha previously had seemed to be talking about events of the past, when we examine this passage, we can see that he is in fact addressing himself primarily to the period after his passing. He is explaining events of the past as a precedent."(Hokke Shuyo Sho, GZ-335)
Likewise Nichiren. Soka Gakkai claims that Nichiren's manner of propagating and preaching the Lotus Sutra was appropriate for his time but not for our time. How foolish they are.
