 Robin Beck: Omosu & Taisekiji
SGI seems to have scrapped the Nichiren Shoshu claim that Kitayama/Omosu was a mere sub-temple Seminary of Taisekiji, that 'rebelled' in 1483.
The 1482 debate was Taisekiji {Nichiu} and Nishiyama Honmon-ji-{Nichigen} versus Kitayama Honmon-ji & Koizumi Kuon-ji.
Taisekiji was built and maintained by the Onodera clan.

 Taisekiji
Taisekiji is a name deeply revered by Nichiren Shoshu believers the world over.
The imperatives to establish the True Object of Worship, maintain a high sanctuary for it and ceaselessly chant the True invocation to it are magnificently achieved and exist in perfect unity at Taisekiji.
Taisekiji was founded in 1290 after Nichiren Daishonin's passing, when the second high priest, Nikko Shonin, moved to the broad plain at the foot of Mt. Fuji.

Consequently he settled in Taisekiji at the invitation of Lord Nanjo in October of 1289.
One of those schools was to become known as Taisekiji and later to become known as Nichiren Shoshu.
At Taisekiji the Nanjo Family and its descendents continued to play a sometimes helpful and sometimes hindering role in the subsequent history of what was to become Nichiren Shoshu, while descendents of other Jito families each played a role in Taisekiji's rivals.

 The Fuji Lineage: History of Nichiren Buddhism
Nichikan (1665-1726) was the 26th high priest of Taisekiji Temple and he is considered to be the one who consolidated and systematized the distinct doctrines of Nichiren Shoshu, especially the doctrine that Nichiren Shonin is the Eternal Buddha, not Shakyamuni Buddha.
It is Nichikan who reclaimed Taisekiji from Yoboji and is responsible for restoring and developing the disctintive doctrines of Taisekiji which first appeared during the time of Nichiu.
In 1874, Taisekiji Temple became part of the Shoretsu Branch of Nichiren Buddhism by the decree of the new Meiji government.

Taisekiji is the head temple of Nichiren Shoshu Buddhism.
It is at the foot of Mt. Fuji in Fujinomiya city, Shizuoka Prefecture in Japan.

It is also odd that Taisekiji, the other temple founded by Nikko and claimed to be the location of his main lineage by the Nichiren Shoshu, did not receive any of these authentic Nichiren Omandalas.
Some have suggested that he left Taisekiji and founded Kitayama Honmonji because he did not want to entrust the future of his (really Nichiren's) teachings to the family of Nanjo Tokimitsu who controlled it as their family temple.
Nichiu claimed that it had been given to Taisekiji by Yashiro Kunishige, who the Dai-Gohonzon is edicated to, but Nichijo a contemporary of Nichiu and the head priest of Kitayama Honmonji actually accused Nichiu of forging the Dai-Gohonzon himself.

Efforts were made in that direction by the next five High Priests, and the pagoda was finally completed in 1749 by the 31st High Priest Nichi'in Shonin, using sincere donations collected in various regions of Japan and the support of the lord of Kameyama castle, Itakura Katsusumi.
The Reception Hall was first founded by Taisekiji's 9th High Priest Nichiu Shonin, and with the passage of time, it has been rebuilt several times.
The current building was reconstructed into a grand ceremonial hall under the aegis of the Taisekiji's 67th High Priest Nikken Shonin in March of 1998.

The unique interpretation of the Fuji Schools, those derived from Taisekiji, is the Nikko lineage that Nichiren Shu disagrees with.
According to Fuji School records, Taisekiji Temple was founded by Nanjo Tokimitsu (1259-1332) and Nikko Shonin (1246-1333) in October of 1290 or 1291.

 The Orthodoxy Question
Taisekiji Temple preserves the so-called "Two-Transfer Documents." According to the Dictionary of Buddhist Terms and Concepts, published by Nichiren Shôshû International Center in 1983, these documents are: 1.
It is interesting to see that Nichidô (1283-1341), the fourth Chief Priest of Taisekiji Temple, clearly states in his Nikkô Shônin Goden Sôan (The Biography of Nikkô) that Nikkô stayed at Minobu for three years, not for six years.
Therefore, Taisekiji had no objection to keeping the document although the place of the Kaidan was assigned to Nishiyama Hommonji, and not to Taisekiji.

 The Truth About NST Activities on the Internet -- refuting the lies on the SG-eye.com website
One of them made the suggestion that the SGI should "liberate" the Dai Gohonzon, which is currently enshrined at Taisekiji.
As to who "owns" it: Nichiren said he was not a founder or member of any sect, and in his writings makes it clear that the actions he took throughout his life were due to his compassion for all humanity.
There is not an exact analogy, but think of it in terms of Jesus' message being claimed by a publisher of the Bible.

In 1332 Nikko officially appointed Nichimoku chief priest of Taisekiji.
In 1333 Nichimoku, having transferred the office of chief priest to Nichido, set out for Kyoto with the priests Nichigoand Nichizon to remonstrate with the imperial court.
Nichiu (1402-1482), the ninth chief priest, restored stability to Taiseki-ji for a time, but in the ensuing centuries it saw further periods of decline and recovery.

 Excerpt -- Soka Gakkai
The version of the Gohonzon in question was copied from a scroll transcribed in 1720 by Nichikan, the twenty-sixth high priest of Taisekiji, based on the original Daigohonzon present in Taisekiji.
However, members are still denied the opportunity of undertaking pilgrimages to Taisekiji, even though the Great Temple was built thanks to their donations.
More recently the rupture between SG and the Shoshu priesthood was consummated when High Priest Nikken ordered the destruction of the Great Reception Hall (1995) and then the Great Main Temple (1998), both constructed under President Ikeda.

Soka Gakkai, a 10 million member Japanese religious lay organisation, has rejected demands by its 700 year old parent Nichiren Shoshu sect that it disband.
The conflict surfaced about a year ago when Soka Gakkai leader Daisaku Ikeda criticised what he called the luxurious lifestyles of priests at Taisekiji Temple, Nichiren Shoshu's chief temple at the foot of Mount Fuji, and their authoritarian attitude towards the lay organisation.
The Soka Gakkai or 'Value-creating Study Society', was founded in 1930 by Tsunesaburo Makiguchi.

On February 24, 1995, Yamazaki was invited to attend a meeting of Iida Buddhist Organization in Nagano Prefecture (the place for Nagano Winter Olympic).

 Famous Quotes from High Priests of Taisekiji
I offer my sincere devotion to the HP Nichimoku Shonin, the master of the seat of the Law and to each of the successive High Priests to whom the Law is transmitted.
"The Taisekiji school is the denomination which recieved it's transmission from the Daishonin, so the followers of this school must be sufficiently versed in the Gosho.
The doctrines in the depths of the Gosho are handed down by the **successive High Priests,** the great principles of those teachings **must be learned from a teacher**, and the disciples must not even for a moment adhere to their own views."

 Religious battle taking shape in foothills of Mt. Fuji
Tokyo -- In the foothills of Mt. Fuji, just lightly dusted with snow this time of year, are the sprawling grounds of Taisekiji, the ancient temple headquarters of the Buddhist order of Nichiren Shoshu.
Where 150,000 Soka Gakkai members used to make the pilgrimage to Taisekiji every month, just before the excommunication that number had dwindled to less than 10,000.

 Anti-Islam Remarks
Amidst the flourishing of such a great number of incorrect religions today, there is a teaching that accurately explains cause and effect and causal relations as they span the three existences of past present and future, and explains exactly how the paths to happiness or unhappiness lie within this.
Due to Islam's armed attacks on India, based on the diabolic notion of subduing and eliminating other religions, Shakyamuni Buddhism vanished almost entirely from India.
When we carefully examine the various heretical religions, a large number of them tend to obscure the correct intelligence and rational thinking that human beings are endowed with.

As one mildly familiar with Japanese Buddhism and post-war religious movements in that land, the news came as a surprise and almost a shock.
In 1972 a program of building and beautification at the temple grounds in Taisekiji culminated in the dedication of the state-of-the-art Shohondo.
