SGI President Ikeda’s message was read out by Ms Naveena Reddi, Director General Bharat Soka Gakkai. Expressing his hopes for the success of the exhibition, Dr Ikeda said, “Your country is the birthplace of the Buddhist philosophy, and hence a source of great spiritual significance. It is in fact the spiritual homeland for people like myself, a land to which we are deeply indebted, the land of our teachers. Now, on the occasion of this Lotus Sutra exhibition, I hope we can in some small way repay that debt we owe you.” Details
