Very simply written, just like Dr. Ikeda's other works. The chapter on the Buddha helped clarify a lot of points of the Gosho for me because it tends to have a lot of references that may go over one's head.

Looking forward to starting the next volume.

Very interesting the story of Buddha Shakyamuni and wars in modern Asia. It shows the suffering of everyone involved, and thus absolutely nothing pays off a war.

it was way better than the second one which was so boring but so far the first one is still the best

A very moving and powerful volume - one chapter is dedicated to the life of Shakyamuni, and the following chapter is full of heart-wrenching experiences of wars and the earnest desire for peace it instilled.

Absolutely Fantastic. I couldn't put it down and finished it in five days. What a delightful book! Thank you Sensei. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and am now reading with and teaching my fellow YWDs and WDs. Of all the NHRs that I had the privilege to read, this is the best.
