A short passage

"The Buddha has in fact said that in the evil world of the latter age, those who preach this sutra as the sutra itself directs will face many enemies. And yet there are some persons in the world now who say that they uphold the sutra, that they read it and carry out its practices, and yet they have no enemies. Are the words of the Buddha false, then? Or is the Lotus not a true sutra?" - Sovereign, Teacher, and Parent

  2. What about your own anger, Greg? I had earfuls of your angry rants for about 5 years!
    Funny how you decide I’m an enemy for challenging your 911 conspiracy theory ! Funny because you are always looking outward and seem to need to target someone, blame someone for your weaknesses , hiding behind Nichiren,s words and Mark’s bully pulpit . I have no idea what, if anything you shared with me over five years , was the truth ! By definition you are duplicitous.

  3. There aren't even any rational humans, in positions of authority. James Hansen is probably right, about there being less than 10 years left. He's talking about catastrophic climate change. Then after saying something, about the enormous amounts of devastation that are happening and building, this creature, Hansen, will say that nuclear is the only thing, that can save things. A person who is not brainwashed about nuclear can show you, that nuclear waste, bombs, reactors, and contamination are actually a multiplier effect that are working synergistically and parallel with climate change to move climate annihilation to the next 3 to 5 years , Not 10 years. CATASTROPHIC Nuclear ANNIHILATION insures no DNA LIFE , which is the only ice there is. Even robots can do nothing for the fukushima or chernobyl critical mass blobs.

  4. I don't have much time left. My cancer is back. I know the truth. I'm not a coward. I have lived my life honorably. I have saved many lives. I have not been a greed gut. I have never killed. Never killed or ruined anyone directly or indirectly for money or lust.
    Stood up for truth. The US, is perhaps the darkest culture to have ever existed. The greed, the lust, the poisons, the lies, the carnage
    The Usa, is headed to a bipartisan authoritarian and police state. That is the real story. A large part of the 1.7 trillion budget, is to hire large amounts of new police, build more jails , more and bigger prisons. Further militarized the police. A great deal of funding for more surveillance. It's what the rightwing fascist, trumpbutts want. Its what the rightwing corporatist democrats and their brainwashed minions want. Those are the only 2 party's. The economy is trashed. People can't afford housing, food, or fuel. The solution is for the politician parasites, to sell out and clamp down. That's what trumpers and republicans want right? Stronger authority and clamping down. Especially on the the poor and the black expendibles.
    The bidenites have a bipartisan compromise for that. The brainwashed Biden followers want to take down Russia, China and the rest of the world at any cost, even at the cost of most Americans starving in the streets. Not being able to feed their children.

    1. mind/body oneness may shed light on your plight with regard to your terminal illness.
      the Buddha and Nichiren were teachers, not saviors!

  5. gotta consider that some people treat those who disagree with them like enemies and cannot figure out why they are unpopular. then again, when you see how entrenched gregorio is in his gloomy world view, ya gotta wonder --- why he fails to pecreive myoho in everything? and really, does he live in a cave? is he an educated man? or just a recluse who blames his isolation and bad attitude on being a nichiren follower? cos, hey-- most of nichiren's followers did pretty well remaining positive thru their challenges and hardships. something wrong with this picture--- smells funny.
