About Site Search Support Jung Page Support CG Jung Page in making a small donation: Analytical psychology and Buddhism of Nichiren Daishonin Written by Erika Gsell Default Text? Foreword This paper should not be considered a scientific work, but simply the expression of a few ideas, supported by Buddhist and Jungian bibliography, and a "basis of discussion". Furthermore, as I unfortunately do not have any books in English, except the three works mentioned found on Internet - I was almost always unable to quote directly but had to summarize the main contents of the cited works. Finally, the language is certainly not at all perfect, however I hope it is at least understandable. Introduction In this brief paper I would like to compare some aspects of Buddhism, in the theoretical and practical approach of Nichiren Daishonin, with some aspects of Jungian analytical psychology. Searching on Internet I discovered that several other authors have already compared Buddhism with Jungian analytical psychology, thus confirming my "suspicion" that these two ways of spiritual and psychological development are somehow not only linked but also very similar in many aspects. Eric Pettifor (1) has, for example stressed the parallel between Zen Buddhism and Analytical Psychology, in the sense that, he writes, "both paths are transformational. The paradox in each of them is that the transformation is becoming more oneself, one's true self".

Back to Main Page The Fuji School Lineage The Six Priests Mentor/Disciple Relationships ... Nichiren Religion History and Groups Intro The Teacher Nichiren Daishonin founded a religion in 13th century Japan that deserves to have a strong impact on the modern world. Nichiren Daishonin taught a simplified and yet sophisticated Buddhism based on the Lotus Sutra and chanting its title. He wrote major treatises and these are worth reading. But he also wrote letters of appreciation and guidance to his followers, which have been preserved as "Gosho" in the subsequent centuries, which together with the treatises elucidates a simple and yet sophisticated kind of Buddhism often called "true Buddhism" by its devotees. This religion is represented both in "new religions," in established groups that have been around for centuries, and in offshoots of each of the established groups.

Buddhism of Nichiren Daishonin Interested in Buddhism but didn't know where to look? Heard of the phrase 'nam myoho renge kyo' but didn't know how to say it? Wanted something 'more' in your life but wasn't sure quite what that 'more' was? Then maybe this is what you've been looking for. Most people in the world today who practice the Buddhism of Nichiren Daishonin are members of an organisation called SGI (Soka Gakkai International).  Soka Gakkai literally means Value Creation, therefore it the Buddhist Society for the Creation of Value. All SGI activities are based on the teachings and the individual practice of the Buddhism of Nichiren Daishonin.  This 13th Century Japanese sage centred his philosophy on what is traditionally thought to be one of the last recorded teachings of the first historically recorded Buddha (variously known as Guatama Siddhartha or Shakyamuni Buddha) which was named the Lotus Sutra.  The Lotus Sutra declares that all living beings regardless of gender or intellectual capacity, can attain the enlightened state of life within their given lifetime.  In common with other Buddhist teachings, individual enlightenment is grasped through the profound realisation of the inseparability of the individual and their spiritual and physical environment and their ability to powerfully influence both.

Unlike many religious founders, he left behind a major body of written works called "Gosho" which embody his distinctive understanding of Buddhism and the Lotus Sutra Birthplace in Kominato Nichiren was born on February 16, 1222, in the small fishing village of Kominato in Tojo in Awa Province in what is presently Chiba (see map) Prefecture . This village is located at the tip of the "Boso" Peninsula. It was and is a fishing village. And though the adult Nichiren was, as a Buddhist strictly vegetarian (see this page:( http://webjapanese.com/column/english/990506.html" ) it was a place that made it's living by fish and by seaweed (Laver). Later in life he fondly recalls eating Laver, and so we know that his life in Kominato wasn't all privation. Kominato now hosts a nice marine acquarium and his birth place has become a tourist attraction. It is no longer the isolated place it once was. Humble Origins Jacqueline Stone notes, that he alone of all the founders of sects in medieval Buddhism (at least in Japan) was of common origins. In later life he would refer to himself as a "son of lowly people," "born of a candala (outcaste) family," and the "child of a fisherman

Nichiren Buddhism was one of the key sects in medieval Japan. Nichiren (1222-1282) was a Tendai Buddhist monk who left the monastery and invented what was truly a Japanese version of Buddhism; rather than focus on the saving power of the Amida, Nichiren stressed that the Lotus Sutra, upon which Tendai doctrine was based, was the key to all enlightenment and fully embodied the truth of the Buddha Trinity (Vairochana, the Eternal Buddha (in Japanese: Dainichi); Amitabha, the Body of Bliss or Eternal Buddha (which is what the Amidists worshipped); Shakyamuni, the historical Buddha). Nichiren required that all boddhisattvas (those striving to become a Buddha) recite the Lotus sutra rather than the name of Amida; unlike Amidism, Nichiren Buddhism laid emphasis on individual effort rather than salvation through the action of the Buddha.

Haddonfield Memorial High School Story Pages HOME final map Nichiren Buddhism In The Sounds of Waves , Hatsue’s father, Teru, belongs to the Nichiren sect of Buddhism. This type of Buddhism is based on the insights of the controversial monk Nichiren who lived in the thirteenth century. He was born on February 16, 1222, in what was once considered Kominato, now called the Chiba Prefecture on the eastern coast of Japan. His name, Nichiren, means “sun” and “lotus”. He began studying religion at age eleven, became a priest by age fifteen, and in 1253, sought reform of religious leaders who, according to Nichiren, were following superstition and unwise religious thinking. He blamed them for natural disasters, such as typhoons. This criticism angered some, but Nichiren kept writing. He believed that Buddha Sakyamuni offered teachings in the Lotus Sutra , the sacred text of Mahayana Buddhists, and in a personal enlightenment that can be obtained in one’s lifetime. Enlightenment occurs by chanting the title of the Lotus Sutra The last nine years of Nichiren's life were spent in intentional exile. He died in 1282 at the age of sixty.

Nichiren Buddhism The distinguishing practice of Nichiren and Nichiren Shoshu Buddhism, two similar sects based on the teachings of the fiery Japanese reformer Nichiren (1222-82), is the chanting of the phrase Namu Myoho Renge Kyo : "I trust in the Sutra of the Lotus of the Wonderful Law" (or Lotus Sutra). A fisherman's son who became a monk of the Tendai sect at 15, Nichiren came to the conclusion that the only true Buddhism was that of the Lotus Sutra, which contained the words of the Buddha himself, as opposed to other schools based on the writings of Buddhist adepts or commentators. But Nichiren went further, attacking the traditional doctrines of Buddhism, and teaching that anyone who chanted Namu Myoho Renge Kyo would achieve paradise on earth, for which he was ostracized and persecuted. Nichiren's beliefs were strongly nationalistic; he felt that Japan could prosper only through teaching the Lotus Sutra, and that he was not only the nation's savior but also an incarnation of two bodhisattvas. Followers of Nichiren today imagine Japan as the center of a Buddha-world that will in time encompass the globe a truly universal religion. The Nichiren chant is often accompanied by drumming, something which may have helped attract a number of prominent American musicians to its practice, most notably jazz pianist Herbie Hancock and pop singer Tina Turner. Nichiren Shoshu developed in the 20th century based on the teachings of a Nichiren disciple named Nikko. A modern lay organization of the Nichiren sect, called the

Nikkô held that Nichiren was the reincarnation of (Jôgyô Bosatsu. So did his disciple Nichizon (1265-1345), who founded Jôgyô -in Temple in Kyoto, the temple being named after the Bodhisattva. But his disciple Hongaku Nichidai (1309-1369), went so far as to say that Nichiren himself entered the stûpa and received the Dharma directly from Sâkyamuni Buddha. This misinterpretation of the Lotus Sûtra) finally culminated in the creation of the Nichiren-Is-True-Buddha theory by Nichigen.
