Ikeda Sensei – The Triumph of Mentor-Disciple Spirit
Dr N. Radhakrishnan
This book contains reflections on the mentor-disciple relationship and on selected writings, speeches & dialogues of President Ikeda by Dr Radhakrishnan.
Johan Galtung, founder of the International Peace Research Institute, and Daisaku Ikeda explore the interface between Buddhism and nonviolent solutions to global conflict.
“Global Civilization” emerged from a series of conversations between two peace advocates of Japanese and Iranian origin. It covers the encounters between Buddhist and Islamic civilisations from the 7th century to the present.
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 the 25 years since the first Japanese and English language editions of the Peccei-Ikeda dialogues, science and technology have opened new frontiers of industry and productivity.
