A Buddhist Podcast
Sunday, 1 October, 2023
Welcome to A Buddhist Podcast for 1st October 2023. Tonights show is the Tenth in a series of dialogues on the Gohonzon between Luigi Finocchiaro, Peter Morris and myself. Tonight we talk about Nichirens exile to Sado Island. We also discuss: Going to Sado Island was not a one way trip, Nichiren's disciples travelled back and forth Our practice to the Gohonzon mandala is the eternal return of the Ceremony in the Air Kankenki drawings of 1254 Without Honen there may not have been Nichiren Sado is where Nichiren starts to cast off his chrysalis and become a butterfly and at Minobu begins to fly Nichirens famous writings on Sado Island, The True Object of Worship and The Opening of the Eyes are extant and clarified so much of Nichiren's teachings We can question whether Nichiren was sent to Sado to die, that might not be true! Japan is unlike Europe, its natural disasters have meant that nothing about Japan has remained the same physically You can purchase Luigi's books here
