Daisaku Ikeda (born January 2, 1928, Japan) is the founder and current president of Soka Gakkai International (SGI) , the international offshoot of Soka Gakkai, a Japanese new religious movement informed by the teachings of Nichiren which has more than 12 million members. The Lotus Sutra is one of the most popular and influential Mahayana sutras, and the basis on which the Tientai and Nichiren schools of Buddhism were established. This sutra is known for its extensive instruction on the concept and usage of skillful means (Sanskrit: upaya, Japanese: hoben) , the seventh paramita or perfection of a Bodhisattva mostly in the form of parables. It is also one of the first sutras to use the term Mahayana, or "Great Vehicle". This discussion among Ikeda, and Katsuji Saito, Takanori Endo, and Haruo Suda examines Simile and parable, Belief and Understanding, the "Parable of the Medicinal Herbs", Bestowal of Prophecy, the "Parable of the Phantom City", Five Hundered Disciples, Prophecies, and the "Teacher of the Law". ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; vii, 229 pages.
