Description

Before the First World War, Masaharu Anesaki's (1873-1949) religious thought was founded on three main principles: the minds of people, their societies, and a great force controlling the two. During the war, Anesaki, who believed in the power of Nichiren's (1222-82) teachings, proposed practicing Japanese Jinponshugi, which attempted to promote human character and its close relationship to the society surrounding it. After the war, Anesaki propounded Japanese Mi.nponshugi, which emphasized moral principles in human social life based on Jinponshugi. For the remainder of his life, Anesaki maintained his religious philosophy while attaching great importance to both Jinponshugi and Minponshugi.
