Because Hong Kong is being asked to abort their cultural and take on Chinese cultural. I would like to explore ways to help Hong Kong maintain their culture in agreement with the 2047 treaty.]]> 2018-10-20 23:46:43 UTC https://padlet.com/sharris111/s4wa46zylgsx/wish/295125493 sharris111 https://padlet.com/sharris111/s4wa46zylgsx/wish/295126408 Prior to becoming an International Psychologist the world, as it stood, was never enough for me. Becoming culturally diverse has made all the difference.  The pages of books that I read, television shows that I have watched, and people that I have met from around the world are all coming to life. ]]> 2018-10-21 00:10:41 UTC https://padlet.com/sharris111/s4wa46zylgsx/wish/295126408 sharris111 https://padlet.com/sharris111/s4wa46zylgsx/wish/295127528 China is erasing its border with Hong Kong - YouTube

So much for an agreement? When an agreement is broken on this level of government who can step in and right the wrong? Is Hong Kong and China headed for a civil war? Young people rising up to protect their rights in the Umbrella Movement is a clear example of Hong Kong's response to China's intent to violate their rights. As an international Psychologist, my desire is to have both sides at the conference table with a copy of the treaty to go over the agreement and ask China to explain why they have decided not to keep their agreement. Forming a transition team composed of members from both side, that will discuss decisions before implementation.

DAISAKU IKEDA
OCTOBER 20TH 2018

Let’s rid ourselves of preconceptions.
We should not definitively assume who a person is simply by their circumstances, title or even their ideologies.  We practice Buddhism to be able to see a person just as they are and make a heart to heart connection.

Tentative translation of “To My Friends” published in the Seikyo Shimbun, based on President Ikeda’s recent guidance.

The Soka Gakkai International (SGI) is a grass-roots Buddhist organization with 12 million practitioners in 192 countries and territories.
Based on the Buddhist belief that all people equally possess Buddhahood, we have no priests or clergy. Rather we practice Buddhism as equals, encouraging one another to overcome life’s difficulties based on Buddhist principles while striving for our dreams and the peace of our communities.
A central activity for us SGI members is monthly discussion meetings in our local neighborhoods where we chant, study together and encourage one another.
