"They tried to chase us when my sisters
went out. They came to our home to try to harass us.
My former friends told lies to get
my phone number. When they called, they said,‘You will go
to hell, you will be unhappy’. Some
were subjected to physical violence. There was an order by
Ikeda to harass members who leave the
cult."

"The Soka Gakkai also has begun a campaign
of harassment against the priests. Rumors
have been spread that the Taisekiji
Temple grounds are in disarray, with stray dogs wandering
about and robbers lurking in the shadows.
Right-wing groups park their sound trucks outside
the temple and blast out their criticism
of the priests..."

"The Sokagakkai's power is important
also in money. It is estimated that Sokagakkai's total
revenue reached $2 billion in 1995-less
than those of normal years which recorded $2.5 to
$3 billion. The largest chunk of their
$2 billion came from the collection of annual dues of their
followers."

"In my view it isn't worth spending
a lot of money
on spying on the Temple, since
so
many people are willing to do it for free."
Chris H. SGI-USA member
"I personally know of Gakkai members
who have disrupted NST events,
at Temples and in peoples homes.(and
in airports) Some of these people I love
and respect a great deal, I do think
however, that attending events (posing as a
member or not) of any organization
with the sole purpose of creating a disturbance
is a poor way of making a point
and is disrespectful."
