An ongoing series of the novelised history of the Soka Gakkai, Shin’ichi Yamamoto, the 3rd president of SGI, embarks on his trips overseas to fulfil his mentor’s vision of worldwide Kosen-Rufu.
Along the fast-paced course of this dialogue emerges a broad yet sensitive glimpse of two men—one a specialist in chemistry/a scientist, the other a Buddhist—both strongly committed to peace and disarmament as fundamental human rights.
The dialogue recorded here can be characterised as a vital bridge much like the ancient Silk Road, connecting the easternmost and westernmost civilisations of Asia.
In this dialogue Ricardo Diez-Hochlietner, educational reformist, economist and honorary president of the Club of Rome think tank, and Daisaku Ikeda examine the problems facing humankind in today’s global society.
