A person, I have been battling for 4 years, sometimes contentiously, wrote me a lovely letter today:
"The theoretical and essential teachings are metrics that gauge realization. The inherent nature does not change because of these distinctions rather one’s ability to discriminate the meaning between the two is relative to belief and understanding. Buddha wisdom is the fruit of the faithful spirit seeking the lotus sutra. The conduit to that storehouse exists but has yet to be realized. To unravel the seeds of Buddhism a bit understand the seeds of the lotus sutra are to realize the complete and supreme enlightenment of Shakyamuni in the lotus Sutra. Other seeds are seeds of provision that are meant to draw the mind stream to the realization of the lotus sutra thus the lack of mutual exclusivity in the categorization of superiority. The dharma gates all lead to the lotus sutra intentionally for the purpose of liberation.
To the last point. It has become clear to me that the Nichiren tradition is being manipulated on Dharma Wheel Nichiren by the same small group of people from the fragments of esanga. This is why DW presents itself as non sectarian but slanders and disparages any traditions outside of Tibetan practices as authentic and capable of leading people to liberation.
To doubt any means of liberation, to cause strife among traditions is poisonous and the means of manipulation flagrant.
It became obvious after I joined when I saw the reactions to form and mind stream on that board the absolute lack of emotional decorum and intellectual objectivity. When psychologists have to have a signature that counterfeits their own teachings to neophytes how absolutely corrupt that community is.
I have been nice in maintaining silence of much of what I uncovered in hopes that minds will come around but the ignorance to their own liabilities is not mine to bear. I hope this finds you well good friend?
I responded:
I agree with 90+% of your analysis, save for "To doubt any means of liberation? which is a healthy approach to spirituality and a component of critical thinking.
