Revised Edition
Around 1,000 BC, the Buddha left a “gem” in his final and most important teaching, for people in a later age to uncover.
In the 13th century, Nichiren, a Buddhist monk, revealed the “gem”— the practice of chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo. The benefits to the individual are immense.
In the 20th century, the Soka Gakkai began to promote Nichiren’s teachings which have quickly spread to the entire world.
This book provides a concise history of the development of this revolutionary movement, and the people instrumental in making it happen. By infusing society with this teaching, we can transform the world from one mired in suffering to one of peace. “World Peace through Inner Happiness” gives a rational account of how to make the impossible possible.
