Soka Gakkai Official's video: The Strength of Faith Based Networks in the times of Disaster

"As a Buddhist, I have a desire to contribute to my community when necessary and to do my best to become the driving force behind this." -- Kimio Ohashi, survivor of Great East Japan Earthquake 9.0 (M) The Soka Gakkai is a global community-based Buddhist organization that promotes peace, culture and education centered on respect for the dignity of life. Its members in 192 countries and territories study and put into practice the humanistic philosophy of Nichiren Buddhism. Soka Gakkai members strive to actualize their inherent potential while contributing to their local communities and responding to the shared issues facing humankind. The conviction that individual happiness and the realization of peace are inextricably linked is central to the Soka Gakkai, as is a commitment to dialogue and nonviolence. https://www.sokaglobal.org/
