A Religion of Human Revolution

SGI-USA General Director Adin Strauss offers impressions on his reading of Daisaku Ikeda's work, A Religion of Human Revolution, where he discusses this core Buddhist concept from several angles. Through reading this book, we are able to gain confidence that we can transform any difficult situation in our environment starting with our inner change, and that nothing is out of our control. In addition, this human revolution, or inner change, marks the beginning of the social change that SGI Buddhists are striving to create, where we can live in harmony with all people and our beautiful natural world.
