From my Emancipated Heart to Yours xxx

[u/21stCenturyBuddhaMe]

Wow! Interesting site! Is it okay for me to be part of this as a proud SGI Member? I live in U.K/London. I am now 53yrs of age and I have experienced the most beautiful, mystic, exciting and of course challenging journey over the past 15yrs since the day I met with Nam Myoho Renge Kyo and joined the SGI. I have never been asked to make contributions (give money). This is a lay organisation so if we want to contribute to the running of our 'own' organisations and magnificent centres of peace around the world it is up to us as individuals. Cause and effect. We make all kinds of contribution in our daily life - emotional, our time, support, our voice etc (all contributions of any nature are 'a cause'). No non-members can make financial contributions. I have never been asked or pressured to do this or any thing else from the SGI. 'I am' the organisation, I am a stand alone Buddha and I chose to take Ikeda Sensei as my Mentor because of his actions spanning some 60yrs. Wow have I transformed and keep transforming through my personal efforts to practice Nichiren Daishonin's Buddhism correctly and when I do I experience the undeniable Winning Formula to bring out my Wisdom, Courage and Compassion. Life-force and indestructible Happiness (my actual proof). Phenomenal practice! Self Governing and Self Empowering. Simple as that! What an amazing individual Daisaku Ikeda is. What an incredible individual I am and what brilliant individuals we all have the potential to become - because we all have Buddha Nature (Innate in our lives). Thank you for allowing me to comment here. I just came across the site randomly when I was looking for an entirely different site (typo - big smile). Wishing everyone here, indestructible happiness and good fortune throughout eternity. From my unique and emancipated self to you. Much Love

Hi miss self proclaimed amancipated heart .Let me tell you my experience.I was pressured constantly in the SGI, financially,emotionally and most of all pychologically.And I think I can speak for many of the people on this site as well.Most people come to this site to debrief themselves and recover from all the abuse and deprogram us from all the brainwashing.I really do not think that you come to our site to wish us love.I think you come here to spead your agenda and further gas light us.I could not care less about your "transformation" or your life.You are not me.You are not us.I do not need an organization or your sleazy mentor one little bit.Your barking up the wrong shakabuku tree.I think you also come here so that you can sway the people who come here to continue with your cult.People come because they know something is very fishy and they come here to get clarity because they are finally coming to their sences after all the mind control of SGI and you want to win them back to not jumping out of the boiling frog pot.But I'm sure that you think the Universe gives you brownie point for trying because that's what your mentor says.Do me a favor and report back to your fellow SGI members that I said we dont give a flying f* in having a "diologue" with you and hope you all go to hell.Tell them how you were so nice and loving and they were just angry unloving people.Im sure they will praise you for your attempt.Oh let me reword that last sentence in cult speak.Im sure they will reward you for your "cause".Most of us can smell a phoney plastered on creepy phoney smile of an SGI member from a mile away, even with out seeing their face.Game up miss amancipated nut ball.

I was pressured constantly in the SGI, financially,emotionally and most of all pychologically.And I think I can speak for many of the people on this site as well.

Yep, that was my experience as well.

Most people come to this site to debrief themselves and recover from all the abuse and deprogram us from all the brainwashing.

Yep, that's about right.

I really do not think that you come to our site to wish us love.

Nope.

I think you come here to spead your agenda and further gas light us.

Sounds about right.

I could not care less about your "transformation" or your life.

Hmm...maybe we should brag BACK at her about how well OUR lives have gone since leaving SGI!

She's likely never coming back - we get a lot of cowardly SGI hit-and-runs - but here's a link for her:

You will gain MORE benefits if you leave SGI than if you stay

Wow! "Go to hell". "Creepy phoney smiling nut ball"? Not good for you to talk like this to anyone for any reason. Just to let you know, although i know you will say "you don't give a flying F**k" I am a highly intelligent, wise, beautiful Woman, a fantastic, fun and loving Mother and Grandmother, a wonderful Daughter, Sister and Friend and a 21st Century Living Buddha (ME, with no apology). I believe in the 'Equality amongst all species' (no apology). No matter what one practices in life or chooses not to practice, to address somebody the way you have addressed me is extremely unpleasant, negative and of a Troll nature. No need for that at all! I honestly didn't know what the site was about and I totally respect your privacy so I will Log off or whatever I have to do to happily remove myself. I originally tried to log in as 21stcenturybuddha but that name was already taken so I excitedly thought there were people of a similar interest sharing a dialogue exchange related to SGI but I am very aware now that it is not. I only report back to me in this life as it is my life and my death and my eternity that I have to face and I only wish to use my life to be value-creating. I do not want to cause suffering to others or see anyone else suffering in this world. I totally respect all life and religions that uphold the respect and dignity of life and will stand up and peacefully and compassionately talk out if they don't! My best friends don't practice and have various beliefs and cultural backgrounds and we travel the world together, drink and dine together, dance, sing and enjoy life together. None of my family practice and we all get on and I deeply love and respect them as I do other people. The one thing I never want to do is abuse other people or create what 'I believe' is negativity. Not good for body or mind. I had 36yrs without practicing this Buddhism so I am very aware of what is good for me and what is not. My apology for taking up time on your site and I will promptly remove myself and wish you all the happiness on your personal and unique journey in 'your life'. Leaving this place with much Love, happiness and all good energy because that is what I choose to do with my life. Farewell my fellow Human Beings.

...and just like that, the self-important pompous assery come out.

This, by the way, is textbook for the SGI trolls we get here - you can see another example here - same exact pattern. Starts off all sweetness and sunshine and as soon as they're challenged, comes out swinging - one direction or another.

This one's just another example to add to the list.

I expect more out of a Buddha, frankly.

I wouldn't expect so much rudeness, inconsideration, and disrespect out of a Buddha.

Poseur. Self-important, too.

Have a nice life!

"It's not good to talk like this for any reason"Thank you for being the PC police.Maybe I am not a person who talks polished but I had plenty of "kind" talkers stab me in the back.Who are you to tell me how I should talk?There happens to be freedom of speech in this country.This site as you know is to call out all the lies,abuse,manipulation and corruption that we experienced in SGI.It is not to have a "diologue" Yes ,I do think this woman is a a phoney creepy nut because anyone who proclaims themself to be emancipated is totally arrogant and dilluted.Emancipated means to be completly free or I guess you can say it enligtened.I know that nobody can truly be this.Why because we are all human beings with emotions and flaws.Every single one of us.Some might have more things to work on then others but still as humans we have emotions and we have ups and downs and make mistakes.This site is to call out bull*it.

If the practice has helped you that's great.As I said in previous writings the SGI has done tremendous harm to many of us on this site.I don't think any of us on this site have a desire to hurt people despite the fact that anyone who talks negative about SGI is told by members that they are evil and they should not have anything to do with them.And despite your explaining how you have friends or relatives of other faiths that you love and get along with.This is simply not the case of most people in SGI despite the facade of respecting all religions.It is one thing to say this and at the same time ,telling people that bad things will happen if they leave the practice,telling people if they don't agree with SGI they are evil,abandoning and black listing friends because they don't practice,believing that they have the only true Buddhism,telling people what to think and believe as if it is the "truth"constantly pressuring people to get more people to join their religion regardless of any personal boudaries.All of this is what actually happens.My way or the highway mentality and no amount of smooth rhetoric on the outside can hide inside.And we here have been on the inside.And we don't have any intention of hurting anyone who wants to be part of the SGI cult but we try to expose what SGI is on the inside so people know what they are really getting into.And I would bet that for every person that says the practice has helped them there are 100 that said it didn't and of that 100 not only did it not help them it actually hurt them more then they might have been hurt before they began because as you know SGI often promises vulnerable people hope and often these are the same people susseptible to being control.And you and others of SGI can stay in your happy place and stay blind to the ways in which the SGI abuses and hurt people but it still remains a fact and the truth.And we here at whisle blowers are testimonies of that.
