The Daishonin’s profound empathy with the people’s pain and suffering is the basis of “On Establishing the Correct Teaching.” His feelings are neither mere sentimentality nor sympathy. Enabling people to become happy is the Buddha’s mission. It is an act that requires waging a struggle against the devilish nature inherent in life that causes people to suffer. For that reason, the Daishonin conveys reality just as it is. Our mission [Soka Gakkai] is to champion the cause of those who are suffering and to struggle against the devilish forces that bring about that suffering.
