Abstract

The article focuses on the profound impact of Daisaku Ikeda's teachings and the author's personal journey in music, particularly his experiences with jazz legend Miles Davis. The author reflects on how Ikeda, a prominent figure in Nichiren Buddhism and the third president of Soka Gakkai International (SGI), emphasized the intrinsic value of each individual and the transformative power of personal change. He shares insights from his life, illustrating how Ikeda's philosophy encourages viewing suffering as a part of life that can lead to growth and happiness. The author concludes by highlighting the importance of recognizing one's multifaceted identity beyond professional labels, advocating for a culture that believes in the goodness of humanity.
