The discussion meeting today at Dipak and Ira's place at 38 Rose Wood Court was quite informative. This year as usual President Ikeda wrote a peace proposal to the UN and I believe is a very remarkable one for a person who is 90 year old. I am so in awe when I read his contributions for world peace. Daisaku Ikeda was inaugurated as third president of the Soka Gakkai on May 3, 1960. Under his leadership the international organization SGI was formed in Guam on January 26, 1975. It has now expended to more than 12 million members and 192 countries and territories.He has set a prime example of how to embody and put Buddhist principle into action for the sake of humankind. He as a mentor is to empower all people to achieve their potential.
