In 1930, Tsunesaburo Makiguchi (1871-1944), the founding president of Soka Gakkai, published the first volume of The System of Value-Creating Pedagogy, describing the education theory he had developed over the previous 40 years as an educator. In essence, to create value means to enhance life. To strive for good, toward peace; to uphold and protect human dignity; to be undaunted by hardship—the essential ideals of Soka education exist in the effort to nurture such creative humanity.[...]
The primary mission of Soka University is value-creating education, to nurture the creative, life-enhancing potential of each student and to inspire students to employ that potential for the greater benefit of humanity."
