Gohonzon Shu Commentaries

  • Comments from Robin's Nest: An astute observer might notice that the usual positions of Aizen & Fudo are reversed. Also, it does appear to bear the gain/loss inscriptions, as alleged by the Late Taisekiji Chief Priest Nittatsu Shonin, but not in the prominent position as seen in Nichiren Shoshu style Gohonzons.
  • The explanation below refers to Mandala #13.
