Synopsis
Through over 100 personal experiences, this anthology illuminates how the practice of Nichiren Buddhism has changed people's lives for the better. These first-person narratives - representing people from all across the country of various ages and ethnic backgrounds - examine the challenges of daily life associated with health, relationships, career, and ageing, and the ensuing experiences of hope, success, inspiration, and personal enlightenment that come about as a result of living as Nichiren Buddhists.

Customer Reviews

So many people, such inspiring stories
This is a great book to have in those places where you might want to read for a few mins (bedside/loo) .. Full of short 2 or 3 page pieces by hundreds of practising Nichiren Buddhists who practise with SGI. Each story relates their own personal experiences of how they have used the practise of this Buddhism in their lives to change or move their lives forwards. Stories with sadness, anger and frustration that are transformed through putting this buddhist practise into action in their lives. Inevitably, some stories will touch on similar situations with readers, offering hope of a way of changing their lives.

My only tiny moan is that I wish the stories weren't just from US citizens .. but maybe that's the next book !
