To Talk Of Prayer After Admitting He

The Japanese Chose The Principle Of Eternal Peace As The Basis Of Morality For Our Rebirth After The War.

I Think, We Can Only Write Very Personal Matters Through Our Experience. When I Named My First Novel About My Son "a Personal Matter," I Believe I Knew The Most Important Thing: There Is Not Any Personal Matter; We Must Find The Link Between Ourselves, Our "personal Matter," And Society.

To Talk Of Prayer After Admitting He Professed No Faith Was, In My Opinion, A Breach Of Common Courtesy. In This Sense, He Did Make A Social Blunder, For Which I Think He Well Deserved Some Minor Castigation.

However, Please Allow Me To Say That The Fundamental Style Of My Writing Has Been To Start From My Personal Matters And Then To Link It Up With Society, The State And The World.

The Way Japan Had Tried To Build Up A Modern State Modelled On The West Was Cataclysmic.
