Chapter Summaries Chapter 1: Securing the Foundation Approaching his third anniversary as Soka Gakkai president, Shin’ichi considers his next steps toward the following year’s seventh memorial of Josei Toda’s passing, an important milestone. In June, he visits the outlying Amami Oshima islands for the first time and recounts the incredible ordeals of the members there. Chapter 2: Jeweled Sword Urging the young men’ and young women’s division to each aim for one million members, Shin’ichi writes new guidelines for them, titled “Youth, Become World Leaders,” a spiritual appeal for them to open their eyes wide to the world. The high priest publishes a directive for all priests to work for kosen-rufu themselves and stop criticizing the Soka Gakkai.

To support the Soka Gakkai’s cultural movement, Shin’ichi establishes the Min-On Concert Association to bring music to the people. Serious financial misconduct by a region leader results in disarray and a lesson in the essential nature of devilish functions. Chapter 4: Raging Rapids John F. Kennedy’s assassination rocks the world. Korea refuses to admit a Soka Gakkai delegation because of widespread anti-Japanese sentiment stemming from World War II.
