Kenshōkai

After engaging in conflict with fellow Hokkeko members due to tolerating Soka Gakkai interferences, it transferred to Myoenji Temple in Sumida, Tokyo.

The organization asserts that the Emperor of Japan has the sole privilege to elect and declare Kosen-rufu for the widespread propagation of the Nichiren Shoshu religion.

Asai was converted to Nichiren Shoshu Buddhism in April 1926 at the Myoko-Ji temple in Shinagawa, Tokyo via his fellow Shakubuku sponsor Mr. Shirasu Ikuzo.

Currently, its members are also conferred a contemporary Gohonzon transcribed by a previous or incumbent High Priest of the Taiseki-ji sect.
