Young Men’s division Gajokai Academy launched
Gajokai members are SGI-USA young men’s division members who have accepted the responsibility for the care of the SGI-USA’s members, facilities and movement for kosen-rufu*.”
The SGI-USA community centers and culture centers are considered the castles of kosen-rufu. The Gajokai members ensure the safety and protection of the members.
*The Japanese phrase kosen-rufu expresses a centrally important concept for members of the SGI. It is often used synonymously with world peace, and has been informally defined as “world peace through individual happiness.” More broadly, it could be understood as a vision of social peace brought about by the widespread acceptance of core values such as unfailing respect for the dignity of human life.
