The more I read the Nichiren's Gosho more mistakes I reflected on Soka and Nichiren priesthood's errors. The Three Treasures stated, "Life as a human being is hard to sustain—as hard as it is for the dew to remain on the grass. But it is better to live a single day with honor than to live to 120 (age) and die in disgrace..... More valuable than treasures in a storehouse are the treasures of the body, and the treasures of the heart are the most valuable of all. From time you read this letter on, strive to accumulate the treasures of the heart!" Both Soka and Nichiren priesthood have no idea what they teaching daily to followers asking them to create more money and wealth!! To be happy in your basic practice and daily life should be most ideal!!
On the Offering of a Mud Pie stated, "The fourth volume of the Lotus Sutra states: “If there is someone who seeks the Buddha way and for the space of a kalpa presses palms together in my presence and recites numberless verses of praise, because of these praises of the Buddha he will gain immeasurable blessings. And if one lauds and extols those who uphold this sutra, one’s good fortune will be even greater.”" Again Both Soka and Nichiren priesthood teaching to offer money and expensive gifts as offerings to the Law and Buddha, but Nichiren stated to uphold the Law or Lotus Sutra, your good fortune will be greater than you offer other things.
Lastly in the same Gosho above stated, "The point of this passage is that one will gain greater blessings by giving alms to the votary of the Lotus Sutra, who in the evil world of the latter age is so intensely hated, than by giving alms to the Buddha for a whole medium kalpa. And if you should wonder who is making such a wild statement, it is none other than Shakyamuni Buddha, the lord of teachings, himself. Whether you doubt or believe him is up to you." What is Alms? Alms are money, food, or similar items given to poor as charitable act. (Dictionary Definition : Vocabulary.com) So why offer alms to the rich Soka leaders and Nichiren priests?? They should offer money and assistance to members such as poor people to resolve their daily problems, then this is the most good fortune they will ever gather. But they are doing now the reverse encouraging poor member even 3 dollars per month to offer donations to them, which 3 dollars could be a meal to poor member probably wish to give to one of children!! Charities should be given from the rich people to the poor and not the reverse!!
Therefore both Soka leaders and Nichiren priesthood they have not studied the Nichiren's Gosho that thoroughly and not practiced correctly!!
