Dalai Lama

Dalai Lama

"But if, in our present age, one were to practice shoju, then without doubt that person would fall into the evil paths together with those who slander the True Law. The Great Teacher Nan-yueh in his Shi Anrakugyo states, ‘If there should be a bodhisattva who protects evil persons and fails to chastise them... then when his life comes to an end, he will fall into hell along with those evil persons.'

"The meaning of this passage is that, if a practicioner of Buddhism should fail to chastise evil persons who slander the Law but give himself up entirely to meditation and contemplation, not attempting to distinguish between correct or incorrect doctrines, provisional or true teachings, but rather pretending to be a model of compassion, then such a person will fall into the evil paths along with the other doers of evil. Now a person who fails to correct Shingon, Nembutsu, Zen and Ritsu adherents who are slanderers of the Law and instead pretends to be
a model of compassion will meet just such a fate as this."

"...The essential thing needed for attaining the enlightenment of all Buddhas is nothing other than the five characters of Myoho-Renge-Kyo..." (MW5, pg. 109)

When Jogyo received the transmission from Shakyamuni of the Lotus Sutra
for the Latter Day of the Law, he was not instructed to "spread love", but to "spread Myoho Renge Kyo".

The Dalai Lama's true nature belies his smiling face. Don Rickles would look good if he had the lavish support that the Dalai Lama had since he was three years old. Everyone has told him that he is a living buddha, an incaranation of some previous lama and treated as such. The Tibetan people have suffered while the Dalai Lama has been well cared for. He's more talented than the actors that flock to him but will he escape karmic retribution in his next life? How will he look then? Do you sincerely think that anyone really benefits from Tibetan Buddhism (it's just Shingon-Bon that keeps people from the Lotus Sutra. Only the Lotus Sutra leads to Enlightenment in this day and age. Anyone that advocates a different path is a mara-devil.
