For my friend Mark: (Last time guys, I promise!)
[Nichiju. The Bodhidharma of Nichiren Buddhism. The Tendai priest that claims he channeled the Daishonin’s teachings in a direct transmission more than fifty years after he died. He must have been a spooky dude!
Started his own sect. A man with no direct connection to any of the Daishonin’s original disciples. But he got it right and everybody else got it wrong? Everyone but his followers slander the Law? Is this a sect for narcissists? I think so.
And we know what the Daishonin said in the four dictums about Zen, and in many Gosho about why. Why? Because it’s simply not a true teaching. And neither is Mark's.
My friend came back at me with guns blazing. I was impressed. I had to check him out further. Somehow I skipped pages ahead in my search to find Mark saying the same things a year or so ago, word for word, that he said about me. In his response to me he spoke as though he was giving an extemporaneous reply directed singularly to my comments.
In truth his response to me was, for the most part, just a cut and paste job! Well what do you know! A big mouth with a data base of snappy replies! I am still laughing my ass off as I type this. To act in such an insidious and manipulative manner says it all.
Knock yourself out Neverdespise. You’re no longer relevant. You aren’t who you say you are no matter how you try to spin it. You ARE a fraud. Cut and paste your Dogma to someone else.
One could put a shotgun to my face and tell me to renounce my faith that Nichiren is my Eternal Master as the Buddha of Kuon Ganjo and all I’d say is pull the trigger. I DID NOT learn that from Daisaku Ikeda. And Nichikan is my hero.
You would have to have lived my life to understand my faith in this perception, just as I guess I would have to have lived yours to understand you. I can’t relate how you could chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo and be like you are (although I'm not convinced you actually chant that much anyway). Frankly I’d rather go to hell. Really!
I will continue to chant for you!]
