Bruce Maltz Comment On Nichiren Buddhism

#4 | Written by Bruce Maltz about 6 years ago.

I really can’t believe you are still bothered with this. I guess you never read all the research we did, but it’s all a distraction. Distractions are distractons, makes no difference if its being hit by a car or reading the Ongi whatever.
Nichiren followed the Lotus, isn’t that all you really have to know, what secrets do you intend to find? If Nichiren was the Original Buddha than why was he so caught up in his ego fights with the Pure Land , etc.. Nichiren’s lifestyle was not Religious Practice, it was only his lifestyle, his believe was in the Eternal Buddha, that the Lotus Sutra describes. Nichiren talks about that Buddha as a person, maybe because he was a little Pureland himself, but nevertheless, you are Christian because you are SGI, and want a SAVIOR.. and have made it NICHIREN.
Did Buddha ever pray for anything? Did he ever tell anyone to pray for anything? He instructed his disciples Not to make statues, etc.. so why would he want Gohonzons now, and he said no austeries, so why would he want Zen or sitten sauza or chanting the same words over and over and over.. this is INSANE… he said during the last days of the law his teachings would be gone, so how can you practice his teachings, he said the next buddha is Maytreya, so how could it be Nichiren.. THINK.. LOGIC..
The Lotus Sutra message is that there is no God or savior, there is nothing outside of your life, its all inside, that is the 3000 worlds, there is no practice, there is no worship, there is no chanting, there is no Gohonzon, there is no org, there is no religion,,,
Someday you will thank me..
But now, you just use me for my intellect and Blog and good looks.. hahahaha
