quiet one, I know! All this meaningless word salad is nauseating!

“The ultimate doctrine contains little that is specific, beyond AN
APPEAL TO ENERGY AND ACTION”: -- Scruton
Here are a few more of the the SGI cult's Ikadaisms:
“Victory or defeat”; “ever victorious”; “life condition”; “take action today”; “It is essential for our members to raise their voices and take action.”; “Develop the will and spiritual energy to guide your members.”; "Give your very life for the Soka Gakkai.”; “A lion is fearless. A lion is never defeated. A lion never laments. A lion is swift. A lion roars. A lion runs. And, above all, a lion wins without fail.”
"And, above all, a lion wins without fail". Certainly, he is not talking about the Detroit Lions. Can animals be said to win or lose? Lament? Never defeated? I can accept "fearless", "swift", and "roars" but even "roars", the Lotus Sutra and Nichiren speak about the roar of the Lion but Ikeda purrs to his dictator and powerful friends.
And what's with this lion metaphor? Lions, whether in the wild or captivity, eat, sleep and mate! Period! Should this be our goal? The lionesses do much of the hunting, and give the lion, the pride leader, the greater share of the hunt. Wait a minute, this
is starting to sound like SGI!
