True peace and nuclear disarmament will only be realized when the right Law, Namu Myoho renge kyo, is established. The means for establishing the right Law has already been revealed by Nichiren Daishonin in his treatise, Rissho Ankoku Ron [Establishing the Right Law for the Peace of the Land]. The way to establish the right Law according to Nichiren is to outlaw inferior religions and philosophies, not to promote precepts [commandments]. Commandments have proven themselves powerless to create peace and nuclear disarmament. Ikeda's proposals amount to commandments. He employs strategies other than the Lotus Sutra. They are doomed to failure.
Daisaku Ikeda, on the other hand, claims that education is the key to eradicating nuclear weapons. Careful consideration shows that 90% of western peoples are educated but nuclear disarmament remains unrealized, practically uninmaginable.
