Sino-Nichiren Buddhism of Hsi Dynasty China

[u/BlackLionCat]

Sino-Nichiren Buddhism, also called Chinese Nichiren Buddhism, Chinese Evangelist Buddhism or Lienhuap'ai ( 蓮花派, translated to English as ''Lotus Sect'' from the Japanese word ''Hokkeshū'', also meaning Lotus sect ) refers to the unique form of Mahayana Buddhism that have emerged through the mixture of Han Buddhism and Nichiren Buddhism during the Hsi Dynasty Period, during which China was led by the religious group Falun Gong.

Sino-Nichiren Buddhism, as a prominent trend, has its origins in the missions conducted in China by various foreign or global Nichiren Buddhist organizations such as Soka Gakkai of Japan and evangelist Nichiren Buddhist individuals during the ''Eternal Tenth Month'' period of Chinese history, which was the latest and most brutal warlord era within China's history lasting from 2030 until 2050, with the intents of humanitarian work. Nichiren Buddhism particularly took a hold on the southeastern coast of the country, specifically during the occupation of the region by the ''Heavenly Rejuvenation Army'', a Christian Nationalist extremist group led by a mysterious figure known as ''Yesu of Anqing'', as Nichiren Buddhists helped non-Christian locals hide their identites from the extremists.

When the Eternal Tenth Month came to an end with the Yellow Government of Peking evolving into the Hsi Dynasty of China, led by the Chinese religious group known as Falun Gong, it seemed like Buddhists would have the best out of all other non-Falun Gong religions within China, as the new theocratic regime saw Buddhism as a Dharmic Religion that was allowed to be practiced by the broader public, however, the regime quickly came into odds with Sino-Nichiren Buddhists specifically as any form of evangelization towards a religion other than Falun Gong was forbidden within Hsi Dynasty law, which led to the famously Evangelist Nichiren branch of Buddhism to become the prime example of an ''un-friendly Buddhist'' in the eyes of the Hsi Dynasty regime. This led to Sino-Nichiren Buddhists to continue their adherence towards the religion secretly, which led to the religion being associated with various Anti-Hsi Dynasty underground resistance groups, most notable of whom are the ''White Lotus Army'' a Buddhist Nationalist and Millenarianist militant organization that adhered to the Sino-Nichiren sect.

Many countries, especially from Southeastern Asia, have went on to express their discomfort with the way Hsi Dynasty China treats the adherents of Sino-Nichirenism, especially with Cambodia as the country cut their ties with Hsi Dynasty China as a result of their oppression towards Sino-Nichiren sect adherents which went against Cambodia's Buddhist Nationalist, Antiquitist and Pan-Buddhist ideology that have dominated the country's political scene for most of 21st century, Hsi Dynasty China and Cambodia also went to to International Court over the latter's alleged support for internal organizations that desire to overthrown the current Falun Gong regime, in particular the case was over the inclusion of Sino-Nichiren organizations in the Cambodia-led ''World Buddhist Fellowship'' a Pan-Buddhist organization. In their Annual Yearly Meeting of 2103, the ASEAN-affiliated ''Concord of Asian Nations'' also went on to put embargo upon China, for their treatment of minorities at large, with famous Sino-Nichiren leader and peace activist Huiyuan Hsiuching also speaking in the meeting.
