On Right Speech
It has come to my attention that heretical persons are infiltrating SGI, sowing seeds of doubt, and disrupting harmonious unity by promoting "Right Speech." Some of these people have been identifued as IRG members. Can there be any doubt that this wicked plot was hatched by conniving Temple Members?
"Right Speech" is a hinayana teaching. As Nichiren Buddhists, we are not to accept a single word from other sutras. We should honestly discard these provisional teachings. Using "Right Speech" is like mixing filth or pebbles with rice. There is no doubt that those who use "Right Speech" will fall into the avici hell {I think that is in Italy, close to Rome}.
If you have been infected by "Right Speech," you should get help at once. We recommend that you visit the following web sites:
SGI International Information Resource
alt . religion . buddhism . nichiren
Those sites will provide training in the correct practice for this Age of Mappo.

Sounds as if your Right Speech invective is as smooth as ghee. Actually, your words sound as if they could have been uttered by the big cheese himself.
The one thing I've learned is this - and Nichiren said it best, and I must paraphrase here; all the words of the Buddha (Shakyamuni) are golden. When you been truly Sokafied, bonoed into submission, and the Gakkaification is complete, one will know that all Buddhism outside the Taksekiji orthyodox and secular slant is hobo. Now that's scarry.
To me, Right Speech means understanding the Lotus Sutra, the inclusiveness of Shakyamuni's wisdom and mercy. It is not being afraid to speak the truth of its boundless revelation when narrow minded, self-rightesous zealots attempt to claim exclusive knwoledge and ownership.
Reading the Lotus Sutra and understanding its message is in itself a refutation of those who would damn Right Speech. Charles

VW: Impeccable logic, and I also loved the advanced bullshit wizard. Funny stuff.

Posted by: robin at April 27, 2006 09:15 PMRight speech is part of the noble eightfold path. It is in the area of conduct. It is normally defined as refraining from certain types of speech. Namely false, divisive, hurtful, and idle. Looking over the links (and I couldn't for too long)I can only guess you are continuing the sarcasm topic by terming this right speech. What's a bodhisattva to do!

Posted by: clown hidden at April 27, 2006 08:19 PMHi, Robin - as a card-carrying wicked and conniving advocate of right speech, I would like to rebuke you for your evil and duplicitous use of the term Soka SPIT in the above article. This usage clearly bespeaks your unwillingness to accept right speech as a true teaching of the Buddha. Consider yourself remonstrated with. Best, Byrd in LA
