I'm the daughter of holocaust survivors. World peace has been my longtime dream, although I know what a difficult task that would be. "World Peace through Inner Happiness" reveals how chanting "Nam-myoho-renge-kyo" can unlock inner happiness and create a ripple effect of peace across the globe. It's a personal and spiritual journey rooted in Nichiren Buddhism, offering hope and transformation for anyone seeking meaning. It's not an overnight fix, but I believe world peace can happen.

I've been doing this practice for 40 years with the Soka Gakkai, and it's helped me greatly. I went from a depressed child in the slums of Coney Island, Brooklyn, New York, to my dream location in Homer, Alaska. Now, I'm quite happy, despite challenges that arise. I can't think of a more worthwhile endeavor than spreading Nichiren Buddhism and promoting world peace. I hope you enjoy my books.

"World Peace through Inner Happiness" won two awards from Global Book Awards.
