Hobo
謗法
Hobo means to revile the Dharma, to disobey and disbelieve the true Buddhist teaching. As Nissen Shonin taught; ‘Disparaging the Dharma means acting against the natural laws, disparaging the Dharma is, in a broader sense, to act against the natural order and reason. In our religion, however, it means not to believe and uphold the Sacred Object of the Lotus Sutra which contains all the holy existences and to separately worship other gods and buddhas.
Buddhas, bodhisattvas and the heavenly gods are all present in the Gohonzon. Believing in these gods and buddhas separately and they are in other places is to make little of the Gohonzon as imperfect, which is nothing but disparaging the Dharma.
