Shumei is dedicated to improving the human condition by applying
the philosophy of Mokichi Okada, a naturalist, art connoisseur and
humanist who lived in Japan during the early and middle decades
of the 20th century, in one’s daily life. The basis of this
philosophy is the responsibility of the individual to improve oneself
for the betterment of humanity, the cultivation of an aesthetic
appreciation
|
|
and the development of a way of life based on harmony with nature.
Shumei has programs around the world. The organization's programs
seek to build cooperation between people of different cultures and
respect for diversity in order to foster a deeper sense of global
community and, thereby, contribute to world peace.
