Dear Reader
It will soon be May and time again for Lambeth Libraries annual Readers and Writers Festival – a month long programme of inspirational events in Libraries throughout the borough. The festival includes something to appeal to all tastes. There will be talks and discussions with a wide range of authors – from the well-known to the up and coming. And it’s all free of charge!
This year we have some of the best, funniest and most interesting authors around such as Helen Oyeyemi, Gillian Slovo and Stuart MacBride – and make sure you don’t miss Arthur Smith and Mark Steel on Comic writing for the Mid-life crisis – you can see a full listing or download the brochure at http://www.lambeth.gov.uk/Services/LeisureCulture/Libraries/ReadersWritersFestival.htm - I hope there’s something of interest for you.

Kick off and Inspiration Day
taking Buddhism to the Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual and Transgender Community
Sunday 17 May 2009 – 10.00am – 4.00pm
Josei Toda Hall, Taplow Court
Saito: Generally speaking, there are many different theories of organisation. But I think that many in body, one in mind is the ultimate organisational principle for helping each person manifest his or her abilities to the utmost degree.
President Ikeda: Exactly. Many in body, one in mind is indeed the supreme organisational principle that cherishes each individual and enables them to realise their full potential.
‘Many in body’ reflects the understanding that each of us has a unique mission, talent, and set of circumstances. ‘One in mind’ means that despite our individuality, we need to be united in spirit.
In contrast, ‘many in body and many in mind’ is a situation of utter disunity, while ‘one in body and one in mind’ is one controlled by group thinking in which individuality is ignored and totalitarianism ultimately results. Neither situation allows people to manifest their unique abilities.
Morinaka: The ideal organisation is one in which many different people are united by the same spirit. And, with this spirit as their foundation, they engage in activities as a diverse group.
President Ikeda: Everyone, without exception, has a mission. Each person has enormous potential. The question is; how do we actualise that potential?
When one carries out his or her human revolution, it gives others courage and hope. It gives them confidence. Inspiration gives rise to inspiration, setting off a chain reaction that generates tremendous energy for change.
Saito: In that sense, I feel that the Soka Gakkai is a truly democratic organisation based on the profound spirit to treasure each person.
The World of Nichiren Daishonin’s Writings, Vol 1, page 137-138
President Ikeda: The Daishonin urges his followers to practise “just as Nichiren,” (Gosho Zenshu, pg 1589), and to “spread the Lotus Sutra as he does.” (WND, pg994). Disciples who wait for the mentor to do something for them are disciples of the pre-Lotus Sutra teachings. True disciples of the Lotus Sutra are those who struggle just as the mentor does.
