The book is intended for a wide range of readers.
In this six-volume work, Daisaku Ikeda, a Buddhist philosopher and president of the lay Buddhist organization Soka Gakkai International (SGI), examines and expands on the Lotus Sutra, a highly valued sutra in the Mahayana tradition.
Together with representatives of the Soka Gakkai Study Department, he shares observations and insights on each of the Lotus Sutra’s twenty-eight chapters as interpreted by the 13th century Japanese Buddhist teacher Nichiren and the Sutra’s capacity to empower contemporary society.
