THE WHOLESOME FAMILY LIFE
by Nikkyo Niwano
The basic theme of this friendly
and thoroughly practical book is education in the home. To parents beleaguered
and bewildered by the complexity of modern society, it will come as truly
refreshing in the midst of much that is discouraging in the present-day
world. Here, in readily understandable terms, one of Japan's most outstanding
Buddhist leader offers guidance for the solution of a host of problems.
Education in the home, he points out, is an absolute necessity for the creation
of wholesome children. School education is not enough, for it concentrates
largely on imparting information and technical skills, and it unfortunately
fails to emphasize morality. The basis for home education, he says, is religion,
and he effectively explains why this is so.
NIKKYO NIWANO, author of A Buddhist Approach to Peace and Lifetime Beginner and the founder of Rissho Kosei-kai, a lay Buddhist organization numbering well over six million members worldwide, was awarded the Templeton Foundation Prize for Progress in Religion in 1979.
