The New Human Revolution - Volume 8 Daisaku Ikeda

‘Securing the Foundation’: Shin’ichi combats bureaucratic tendencies within the organization. He visits Amami, one of Japan’s remote islands, laying the foundations for the development of kosen-rufu. ‘Jewelled Sword’: Shin’ichi declares that the Soka Gakkai will enter its “essential phase” in April 1964, on the occasion of the seventh memorial (sixth anniversary) of President Toda’s passing. He focuses on training the youth, launching a series of lectures for Kyoto University student members on ‘The One Hundred and Six Comparisons’. ‘Pure Stream’: A scandal involving some Soka Gakkai leaders brings to light the true nature of the devilish functions working to obstruct the organization committed to kosen-rufu. ‘Raging Rapids’: The world is shaken by the news of President John F. Kennedy’s assassination. The members in South Korea weather persecution from the authorities, resolute in the conviction that winter always turns into spring.
