Abstract

Nichiren lived in Japan between 1222 and 1282. After completing his education,in 1253 he proclaimed his doctrine and established new school. Nichiren, as per—son with the traditional and nationalist tendencies, tried to melt Japanese folk beliefsand Buddhist teachings in pot. He argued that in Kamakura period during which helived the false religious teachings spread out and schools increased the heresy of theiradherents, and thus harshly criticized the religious and political authorities and alsomade audacious recommendations and, therefore, was punished several times by thepolitical authority. However, when it came out that he was right in some estimates andforesights of his, his ideas found followers among the Japanese people. The funda—mental basis of the teachings of Nichiren was Hokekyo. According to him, this bookincludes the essence and mysterious aspects of sacred rules of Dharma preached bySakyamuni Buddha. On the basis of fundamental teachings of Nichiren’s Hokekyo,this mystery and essence was re-understood, and thus the instant enlightenment, socialsalvation and moral virtues found their real values.

Özet

Nichiren 1222-1282 yılları arasında Japonya'da yaşamıştır. O, eğitimini tamamladıktansonra 1253 yılında öğretisini ilan etmiş ve yeni bir ekol kurmuştur. NichirenJapon halk inanışları ile Budist öğretileri bir potada eritmeye çalışan, gelenekçi ve milliyetçieğilimleri olan biridir. Yaşadığı Kamakura döneminde, yanlış dini öğretilerinyayıldığını ve takip edilen ekollerin sapkınlığı artırdığını ileri sürmüş, dinî ve siyasierkleri sert bir şekilde eleştirirken cüretkâr önerilerde bulunmuş, bu yüzden siyasi otoritetarafından birkaç defa cezalandırılmıştır. Ancak o, bazı tahmin ve öngörülerindehaklı çıkınca, fikirleri Japon halkı arasında taraftar bulmuştur. Nichiren'in öğretilerinintemel dayanağı Hokekyo'dur. Ona göre bu kitap, Sakyamuni Buda'nın vaaz ettiğikutsal Dharma kanunlarının özünü ve gizemli yanlarını içermektedir. Bu gizem veöz esas itibariyle Nichiren'in Hokekyo'ya dayalı temel öğretileriyle yeniden anlaşılırhale gelmiş, böylece anlık aydınlanma, toplumsal kurtuluş ve ahlaki erdemler gerçekdeğerini bulmuştur.
