I was informed, through telephone, three days before about the removal of my position in SGM. There was no prior discussion on this new arrangement. Nothing on my new role. A few days later, another telephone call. This time, my chief wanted to know my answer, whether I agree with the arrangement or not. The… Read More Confession of a youth leader
Serious allegations are flying around the social media about corruption and misconduct of Soka Gakkai top executives in Japan, even demanding the resignation of SGI President Harada. There are photos of hundreds of demonstrators outside the Hall of Great Vow with large banners, as well as a youtube video of an hour long press conference by three… Read More An ugly storm brewing in Soka Gakkai – Japan
这是我们的经验之谈。在过去的一段时间，我们曾多次与高级干部对话。然而，对话的内容和结果都是让人难以接受的。以下列出的，就是我们经常得到的，让人觉得困扰，没有正面回应的答案。
I wrote this in one of the comments in Daylight on the subject of why the organization have not grown. I always wonder why we don’t have full-time speaker, who are strong in study, such as a pastor of a Church, who speaks really well and can motivate and encourage people in attendance. When we have… Read More Organization Decline
I don’t feel comfortable attending the recent All Leaders Meet. It did not feel like a SGM meeting that leave you with hope and positive energy. Sure, there was the great news about the upcoming launch of the SGI Asia Culture and Education Center in Johor. And the coincidence of the launch date being on… Read More I am the King of the World!
In the US, when people start to fear Muslims due to the terror attacks, people start having Islamophobia, President Trump being the biggest champion of this. Does that mean we should start to fear members of NBA as though it’s NBA-phobia?… Read More What exactly is “anti-Gakkai”?
以下的文段摘自教宣秘书处于2016年9月25日发出的教宣通讯。 社论 “魔不竞出，焉知正法？”（《兄弟抄》，御书1130页）迎向池田SGI会长期待的SGI东南亚研修中心落成，发生了令人痛心疾首的“柔佛事件”，导致许多干部和会友受到困扰。 户田先生曾说：“敌人就是在内部啊！” SGM目前正面临来自内部的各种挑战。眼前的挑战其实也是一场试探和考验，分辨谁是真正的弟子、谁是大圣人佛法的叛徒。 柔佛事件是一个能让我们在现代的修行世界中学习何为正确信心的机会。这次的事件是我们自觉“为真实与正义肩负全责才是正确信心之道”的挑战。我们不应该把这次的事件视为是过去或远在他方的一件事，或认为它事不关己。若是这样，我们便错失了一个宝贵的学习机会。不单如此，我们还会对未来加入SGI的会友造成伤害。通过这教宣通讯，我们希望让大家从此次柔佛事件里学习和受到启发。同时也破折他们的错误和贯彻破邪显正的精神。

How can the Soka Spirit Newsletter claimed that the “issues are resolved” when there are so many unanswered questions? Is it because SGM wanted to prevent further investigation to get to the bottom of these questions such that they are so impatient to declare “mission accomplished”… Read More Minor good, great evil?
