Rakan TPNW (“Rakan” means “Friend” in Malay; pronounced as "Raa-kahn") is a social media initiative by Soka Gakkai Malaysia (SGM) to create a world without nuclear weapons through creating awareness of and promoting the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW).
Nuclear weapons are one of the greatest threats to the existence of humanity and all other life on Earth, including the planet itself. Through this initiative, Rakan TPNW aims to awaken and harness the power of common people to create a world free from the threat of nuclear annihilation.
SGM (http://www.sgm.org.my/) is an organisation that promotes peace in society through cultural exchanges and humanistic education, based on the life-affirming philosophy of Nichiren Buddhism. “Soka” means creating value. As Buddhists engaged in society, we believe that all human beings, regardless of gender, ethnicity or social standing, have the power to overcome life’s challenges and develop a life of immense value. We are an affiliate of Soka Gakkai International (SGI; https://www.sgi.org/), a socially engaged Buddhist association linking more than 12 million people worldwide.
SGI President Daisaku Ikeda wrote: “The future lives within the attitudes we keep. It’s not some rosy dream guaranteed to us without any efforts of our own. It will remain a fantasy unless we strive to make it a reality. Nor is the future necessarily dark and grim – such a vision of the future is the product of passivity and the refusal to strive for something better. We need to see the present clearly and objectively, envision the future we want, and then act to make it a reality. We need to strive our hardest, trusting in the power of our lives and the potential within humanity.”
Let us all join hands and build the future we want – a future free from nuclear weapons.
