This book collects a series of philosophical papers dedicated to the figure and work of Daisaku Ikeda. The author’s interest in studying Ikeda’s work is not to carry out a specialised or disciplinary study of his Buddhist exegesis, or to offer a critical synthesis from the point of view of its basic doctrinal contents and references, nor to examine his creed and religious teaching.Beyond the fact that Ikeda’s work has the double face of a construction founded on a Japanese philosophical-religious tradition with specific links to classical Chinese tradition, interfaced with the globe’s most representative literary, scientific and speculative cultural products, it was developed according to an intercultural design strongly marked by western rationality and a spiritual-speculative-pragmatic approach to life and the world. Throughout this book, the author proposes an agnostic suspension in order to leave a place for philosophy and its argumentative constructions.
