... Hello, TS - I prefer the translation "Wonderful Dharma of the Lotus Flower" myself. I have been to see the Daigohonzon on tozan in 1989. I don't think it...
I went on Tozan in '81, when I was looking outside myself for the Gohonzon. Nichiren stated "never seek the Gohonzon outside oneself". The idea that he...
The Dai Gohonzon is not a super Gohonzon even though some would portray it as such. The individual Gohonzon is representative of the individual environment....
My personal belief is that all Gohonzons should be honored and respected, each in our own unique ways, whether or not we belong to the given school of...
 I accept the notion (doctrine?) that the Gohonzon is not an object, but an event; the Eternal On-going Ceremony in the Air as portrayed in the Lotus Sutra....
I knew your name sounded familiar, Jim Waggoner. Other SGI (then NSA) pioneer members talked about you like you were virtually second in command to Mr...
 Not really! I never had (nor wanted) a leadership position. For a number of years, I made it a goal to "fuse" with Mr. W. He had incredible sincerity. His...
Hello I am Kabuki San from Japan. I am unsure in the U.S. but our Gohonzon is hung inside our alter as to one with our soul. Ofcourse, Gohonzon is private and...

Hi Jerry, Â Death to tyrants! Sound pretty drastic, but I might make an exception for "SenseI". [evil grim] I don't expect Ikedaism will go away no matter how...
We must all take a look at ourselves and each other, for this is the base teachings of Buddha. Truely, we each of us feels so very strong about our faith in...
... perhaps the Buddha in you did the curing. Chanting opened up the chanells for your Buddhahood to surface. Just a thought. It is worth the faith....
Jim, I'd stick with Cheney. He can voted out of office, while Ikeda has appointed himself to an eternal term in office while alive which will continue...
Thank you for such a positive reply and post. It is possible. As I grow older I seem to study deeper in my faith. I am a Magician you see and my wife and I...
... Thank you for making such good causes. As you know they have wonderful effects. There is much majic in the universe, thanks for adding your own brand. It...
I live in Tampa, Florida. I have lived in Phoenix, New York, Denver, New Port Richey, San Antonio, Texas, and Fort Walton Beach, Florida. And, President Ikeda...
Angela, I've gone on Tozan myself, several times. I was one of the TCD who guarded the transfer of the Dai Gohonzon into the Sho Hondo in October 1972, and was...
You know something, you and many other people who were very active in NSA/SGI have forgotten that the reason why you received a Gohonzon was to improve your...
Putting on my moderator's hat, I would like to humbly request that the owner of this group, the Grand Mentor of the Polyester Sect, to please refrain from...
Don, Well done. The Grand Mentor of the Polyester Sect stands corrected. Some of the voices in his head from the heavenly realms tell him to enter a period of...
Angelaa, ... Angela, Actually my immune system is doing just fine; I haven't had a cold, flu or any infectious disease in 3 or 4 years. Over my life I usually...
