In these insightful discussions, Daisaku Ikeda explores from a variety of angles the life, times, and teachings of Nichiren Daishonin as described in his writings. We learn how Nichiren’s actions—from his vows at an early age to bring happiness to the people through his fearlessness in face of life-threatening persecutions—can become a model for us today. And the humanistic interpretations of key Buddhist concepts bring new clarity to ideas such as “attaining Buddhahood in this lifetime” and “establishing the correct teaching for the peace of the land.” More than just history and theory, the inspiration offered here aims to provide a deeper understanding of how to put into daily practice Nichiren's philosophy of hope and victory.
