A travel blog, Brave New Traveler, names Soka Gakkai along with GATE and Knowledgism "three new religions with a modern twist." The article notes:
Based on Buddhism, Soka Gakkai developed from the teachings of Nichiren, a 13th century Buddhist reformer.
That's one way to explain it. Another way: They misappropriated and distorted the teachings of Nichiren to legitimize the political and business activities of their pseudo-religious prosperity cult. |
