TheAmerican futurist Hazel Henderson once asked me why the Soka Gakkai movement had spread on such a global scale. I told her it was because we have always treasured and respected each individual.[1]

Our Soka network, with members in 192 countries and territories around the world, is the fruition of our sustained efforts to meet and talk with others, and help them elevate their consciousness and cultivate wisdom.

Through our steadfast efforts to carry out one-to-one dialogue and encourage others, we have enabled one person after another to change themselves from within. That is why we have grown into such a vibrant, socially engaged grassroots movement. This is the underlying strength of the Soka Gakkai, which has attracted the attention of people across the globe as an organization dedicated to world peace.

As the devoted disciple of my mentor, second Soka Gakkai President Josei Toda, I took my first step toward worldwide kosen-rufu, the cherished wish of Nichiren Daishonin, on October 2, 1960. The Cold War was intensifying, the threat of nuclear weapons was growing and armed conflicts and civil strife were occurring around the globe.

Everything that happens in society is the work of human beings. For that reason, though it may seem like a roundabout route, any effort to build a brighter future must begin with a change in human beings. All things, including attaining world peace and the happiness of humankind, start and end with people.

The treasure tower is the life state of Buddhahood, which is revealed by vanquishing fundamental darkness[7] through strong prayer. It is the elemental force within life that enables us to rise up from all suffering and despair, and win.

The monolithic, complex structures of contemporary society can be said to weaken the power of the individual. This can instill in people a feeling of impotence and destroy their self-esteem and self-belief, causing them to feel unworthy and lose their sense of meaning in life.

It is no exaggeration to say that the world today is eagerly seeking a movement like ours based on altruistic bodhisattva practice, where individuals awakened to their own dignity strive to help others reveal the treasure tower in the depths of their lives.

Faith in Nichiren Buddhism enables us to become happy without fail. Encountering difficulties in the course of our Buddhist practice is proof that we are making progress in changing our karma and attaining Buddhahood in this lifetime. This is absolutely assured.

Nichiren Buddhism is not a religion that seeks happiness in some other place. It is a teaching that enables us to bring forth a pure, unsullied state of life that can withstand any hardship amid the harsh challenges of society, and to build enduring, indestructible happiness, just as beautiful lotus blossoms grow in muddy water.

When awakened to our mission, we become infinitely strong. Not only can we surmount our own problems, but the story of our victory paves the way for helping many others attain Buddhahood as well. When we adopt this way of thinking, our hearts that were once shrouded in the darkness of suffering become filled with the light of courage and hope. Our life state expands tremendously and we become less focused on merely achieving our own victory and more focused on enabling others also to win in their lives. As a result, our lives take on a rich new meaning.

Prayer in Nichiren Buddhism is drawing forth hope with unwavering conviction. The practice of chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo is the source of the wisdom and power of Buddhahood. Our ability to tap great life force comes down to the strength of our faith.

The ISA World SUP and Paddleboard Championship is the premier SUP/Paddleboard championship organised by the International Surfing Association. The competition has been held since 2012 and has taken place roughly annually since. There is a similar world championship in this discipline organized by the International Canoe Federation called the ICF Stand Up Paddling World Championships, which originated a litigation from ISA to the ICF. The arbitration was eventually ruled in favor of allowing to keep both championships by CAS, but giving ISA the international recognition of the sport in case of an entry at the Olympic Games.[1]

On 25th of May 1935 the 21-year-old Owens averaged a world record every nine minutes at the Big Ten Championships. Five world leading marks and one world equalling effort, all completed with an injury severe enough for his coach to seriously consider pulling him out of the meet at the last minute.

An interesting aside reported by Sports Illustrated, is that more than half the official timers actually clocked Owens at 9.3 seconds. But the rules of the day stipulated that each runner got attributed the slowest time recorded. No one would run 9.3 seconds for another 13 years.

Less than 10 minutes after setting a world record that would stand for a quarter of a century, Owens lined up for the 220-yard dash. In the USA this distance, until the 1960s, was often run in a straight line, with times also taken for the straight 200m.

The graceful, free-flowing Owens reportedly finished so far clear of his opponents that it looked like he was running on his own. He smashed the world record by three-tenths of a second, finishing in 20.3 seconds. With the 200m mark in his pocket too, it was two world records in one race.

Owens arguably saved the very best until last. Some special athletes have combined sprinting with long jump. The 22-year-old Jarrion Lawson, fourth in the long jump at the Rio 2016 Games and 2016 NCAA 100m and 200m champion, is the latest in a line that also includes Carl Lewis. But almost no athlete has been a sprinter, jumper and a hurdler.

Under President Obama, we made great strides to combat climate change and protect our environment and public lands. The Department of Transportation and the EPA issued new fuel-economy standards, the first meaningful increases in fuel economy for cars and light trucks in decades. President Obama instructed the Environmental Protection Agency to take steps to regulate carbon dioxide emissions from coal-fired power plants, which are the largest concentrated source of emissions in the United States. Under Donald Trump, the United States stands alone as the only nation in the world that is not a party to the Paris Climate Agreement.
