Esperia Discovering Soka Gakkai Buddhism
All the answers to the most common questions from those starting the Soka Gakkai Buddhist practice.Eight centuries ago – on April 28, 1253 – Nichiren Daishonin, a Japanese monk, recited Nam Myoho Renge Kyo for the first time, an teaching whose main purpose is to lead people towards authentic happiness. His disciples constantly asked him questions, driven by the desire to clarify their convictions and strengthen their faith. The Daishonin warmly encouraged such a spirit of inquiry; this tradition of questions and insights continues today within the Soka Gakkai. You too may have questions about the practice and its purpose, about why we chant or why it is so important to attend meetings and, most importantly, what authentic and lasting happiness is. Soka Gakkai International President Daisaku Ikeda believes that the first steps in practice are crucial. He states: "If you can do things correctly from the beginning, you will be able to continue doing so." This small and practical book aims to provide answers to the most frequent questions, both for those who are about to begin their journey of faith and for those who are already on their way. «Each of us, regardless of the difficulties we encounter or the circumstances in which we find ourselves, has a noble and unique mission to fulfill. When we deeply realize this, everything changes. We were born into this world, at this time, to fulfill the great vow we made in the distant past. Our karma is our mission; it is the stage on which we perform the magnificent spectacle in which adversities are transformed into victories.» – Daisaku Ikeda TOPICS COVERED: Nam Myoho Renge Kyo Prayer The Gohonzon Practice Enlightenment and Buddhahood Mentor and disciple The Soka Gakkai Mission and vow

Esperia The Wonderful Law of the Lotus
The focal point of Nichiren’s teaching inspired by the Lotus Sutra is that the life condition of Buddhahood exists in every living being in a potential state. By expressing devotion to the Wonderful Law of the Lotus, through the recitation of Nam myoho renge kyo, each person can bring forth this life condition and manifest it in daily life. The Buddha and the human being are not two separate entities. What distinguishes them is having awakened to the universal law of life. An apparently simple teaching, but one that in reality is based on a philosophical tradition spanning more than a millennium. The text brings together two previous Esperia publications, The Ten Worlds and The Wonderful Law, which were extracts from the work now proposed in its entirety. In it, the author explores the core philosophical principles of Buddhist thought, offering many ideas for reflection connected to scientific knowledge and the vision of life that characterizes Western society.
