Civilization, Revolution and the Dream of America

April 20, 2011 - PRLog -- A profound spiritual revolution is paving the way for the emergence of a new civilization - this is the underlying theme of James Hilgendorf's latest book, "The Buddha and the Dream of America".

As he writes:

"This revolution has nothing to do with all the commotion and thrashing going on around us, clamoring voices, head-on clashes of ideology, stock market ups and downs, wars, deceits, elections, economics, fashions, building booms, technology break throughs, or any of the other zillion zany up and down motions of daily life.

"This is something new.  You have never heard of it."

What he writes about is an inner spiritual revolution, a human revolution on a scale never before witnessed throughout the world.  It is basically the emergence of a new global civilization, based upon the emergence of a new global spirituality or religion; and leading the way in this regard, he feels, is Buddhism, and more specifically the Buddhism of the SGI, or Soka Gakkai International.

This video enclosed, is from a chapter titled "Revolution", which is the third in a series of readings from the book.
