Comments from Is SGI a Cult Video (found on Reddit SGIwhistleblowers)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkCP2VfqUk4

"Commentator: Is Soka Gakkai a Cult? Yes it is. Even former members still practice but have left the cult. I was in that cult for years, and my poor mother, who was also in it for decades, wound up schizophrenic and demented, never got better even though she chanted until the cows came home. Nobody from this cult lifted a finger to help her. Stay away from this cult. They're all the same.

Live From Normal Heights: Actually you're still in a cult. It's called your culture and all your judgments, conclusions, separations, rejections, linearities, concentricities, forms, structures and significances that you foolishly think are real which aren't real, which you are blaming others for holding on to, (as if religions are supposed to save you from your self) which are holding your unreal reality in the incarcerations and inculcations you are choosing, in avoidance of being the Buddha of Absolute Freedom you could be choosing, if you weren't such a nincompoop (maybe you no longer have a choice?). Welcome to the matric which you are using to you're fuckin yourself out of full consciousness with. Or go back to sleep, the 5,000 ittchantikka have not yet left the assembly on eagle peak. So you still MAY have time for your day dreaming, cat naps, Felix.

Commentator: No, I'm NOT in a cult, which is primarily religious or political, and that's that's NOT the same thing as culture which is a collection of customs, arts, social institutions, and achievements of a particular nation, people, or other social group. There's a difference between 'blaming someone' for personal problems, and simply doing nothing to help or assist someone in need. They're not even close. "(as if religions are supposed to save you from your self)" Great, then you just confirmed why no one needs your cult. The only 'nincompoop' (yeah, real 'compassion there) are the brainless zombies like you and the others that blindly follow everything their cult leaders tell them to do and obey. Recently, one of your brainless followers pulled the same, salesman pitch on me to join SG (because they constantly need to replace members that have left) but when I told him what happened to my mother, he literally ignored what I said and handed me some business card and said "this is the true religion, it's right one." Screw all that, and screw your cult as well. Smart, rational people who think critically will stay away from this crap because they know better. .

Live From Normal Heights: From your 1st comment it sound like you're blaming your mother's bad health on whatever choice of religious practice she did with a certain organization. The sutra say rely on the law not on persons. The law is awareness of what makes a person healthy and what makes a person unhealthy. I'm sorry to hear about your mother's health problems, but people chant for the wisdom to know how to take good care of their health. I started working out at gyms since I was 17 because of the wisdom I gained from chanting. I have also eaten extremely healthy all my life due to the wisdom I gained through my practice. Though I can't comment about your mother's life style because I don't know her, I know many people who ignorantly think they can chant their way to good health without getting off their couch but that will not work. They need to chant to overcome their laziness.

Commentator: How in hell does someone 'get off their couch' and suddenly cure schizophrenia? If chanting or if the people doing it doesn't solve or even come close to helping it, then why do it in the first place? What. does the paper scroll pick and chose what's going to be resolved and what isn't? Seriously?"

u/Qigong90's response: There is a lot to unpack here. Live From Normal Heights' callous response in the face of the commentator's mother's mental health problems. The commentator's experience with a Soka Gakkai member who was more focused on membership numbers than dealing with the reality of SGI members' phoniness when it comes to caring. BTW I can vouch for this, because when that feaux friend who set up a call to dissuade me from defecting reached out me last year, I confronted him on his actions. He ignored it. It didn't matter to him that his actions were indecorous and disrespectful. It was all about trying to get me to reconnect with the organization. The SGI is far from a gathering of good friends. And if an SGI leader tells you to follow the law and not the person after you confront them with failed guidance, tell them to stop giving guidance because they're incompetent in that department.
