The Wholesome Family Life
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.
