The second danger is as noxious as mixing the clean with the unclean:
Taking a piece of the teachings from the middle, a piece from the end,
and a piece from the beginning and re-attaching them in reverse order
or mixing them up. The former practice is like a surgeon who reverses
a vein when creating an arterial bypass. The flow of blood ceases and
the patient dies. The latter practice (that of mixing up the
teachings) can be likened to a physician who is ignorant of adverse
drug-drug interactions. He mixes two or three safe and efficacious
drugs together which turns them into a powerful poison. The former
practice of rearranging the teachings is commonplace in the SGI. For
example, those teachings that Nichiren Daishonin taught before he had
fully developed his faith are given precedent over the later complete
teachings or they promote the theoretical teachings of expedients over
the essential teachings of abandoning expedients and the exclusive
faith and practice of the Lotus Sutra. An example of the danger of
mixing several efficacious practices which when mixed have a
deleterious effect, are the practices of shoju and shakabuku in the
Soka Gakkai which are practiced without understanding the times or the
circumstances in which we live. They practice shoju towards the
slanderers of the Dharma such as the Zen men, Nembutsu adherents, and
believers in Islam and practice shakabuku towards the members of the
Kempon Hokke and the Nichiren Shu. These sundry practices the SGI
perpetrates on the children of the Buddha. Neither Greg Martin nor
Dave Baldshun nor any of the salaried SGI leaders are good persons and
neither is their master, Daisaku Ikeda. Both have the mission of
destroying the teachings and harming the children of the Buddha,
Daisaku Ikeda from above and the salaried SGI leaders from below.
The third danger of the SGI is that they arbitrarily add doctrines and
concepts to the Great Pure Teachings where none exist and claim them
as "the original and authentic teachings of Nichiren Daishonin". This
is worse than forging Gosho because it is more insidious. By altering
a word here or a word there, to already extant and authentic Gosho
(literally putting words in Nichiren's mouth), they become adept at
fooling the people. This cunning and treachery they inherited from the
perverse seven hundred year tradition of the Taisekaji priests and
their Gosho Zenshu, Oral Teachings, and faked transfer documents.
Fortunately, we have the unadulterated Showa Tehon Collection of
Original Gosho (as well as expert linguists), to keep them honest. We
also have the disciples and believers of the Eternal Shakyamuni Buddha
and Nichiren Daishonin whose correct faith and understanding renders
them capable of clarifying such matters.
The last danger is, many innocent people fall prey to the SGI's
"Nichiren said this but meant that" arguments which are the teachings
of the delusion of fundamental darkness. Since this is a visceral and
emotional argument and the people are steeped in the Three Poisons, no
amount of logic or scholarship will suffice to overturn it. Most
people can no more see their own eyebrows than heaven in the distance
[Nichiren]. It will require the wisdom of the Buddha born of faith in
Nichiren Daishonin's Gohonzon and the Lotus Sutra to destroy these
arguments and devils.
No one cares. Wrong newsgroup, Mark. If you're looking for a fight,
learn Japanese, translate this, and post it on a Japanese SGI forum.

Dear C. I leave the truth for posterity should a thirsty traveler
happen on this oasis of wisdom from the Kempon Hokke. As far as
picking a fight, were I to pick a fight, I would pick a powerful enemy
like the Chinese or US governement to prove the worth of the
teachings. The braying cowardly donkeys of the SGI hardly qualify as
powerful enemies.

Google will no longer host Usenet posts soon. You are post will not be
held in perpetuity. Even Microsoft doesn't do Usenet anymore. Who wants
to host something only people over 50 use?
Your arrogance and ego is quite large. Is this an effect from practicing
with the Kempon Hokke?

RC comments: Well, that's just Wrong! It's age discrimination against
my generation that brought about the existence of the internet & Usenet
in the first place. So, we 60+ year old geezers are gonna have to
protest that with Google & Microsoft, Inc as elder abuse! LOL.

I have no fear of even Taishaku so your accusations have no merit. It
is the haughty SGI salaried senior leaders who make the most
outrageous claims of their attainments yet hide from me. Then they
send in their YMD and non-salaried leaders to get slaughtered. They
should be ashamed. They should be afraid.

Thanks for proving my point in spades. You couldn't out debate a six
year old and you obviously have very little faith.

" 'There may be persons who listen to the Nirvana Sutra and yet claim
that they have no need to conceive a desire for enlightenment, and
instead slander the correct teaching. Such persons will immediately
dream at night of demons, and their hearts will be filled with terror.
The demons will say to them, “How foolish you are, my friend! If you
do not set your mind on enlightenment now, your life span will be cut
short!' These persons quake with fear, and as soon as they wake from
the dream, they set their minds on enlightenment. And you should know
that such persons will become great bodhisattvas.’ ” In other words,
although one might slander the correct teaching, if one is not an
unspeakably evil person, one will be warned at once in a dream and
will have a change of heart." -- Opening of the Eyes
That is unless you are an unspeakably evil person.

Are you threatening me with eternal damnation because I pointed out --
and you prove with your every post -- that you are an arrogant egoist?
C
No threat just your reality which emerges from every pore of your
being. As far as being an arrogant egoist, why don't you again bring
out again "Kent's brilliant article" and I can disabuse you of the
Nichiren Shoshu's false doctrine of one sole DaiGohonzon. The only one
more deluded [and nasty] than you is Chaz.
