　　In comparison with the human world of past times, our world is highly complex.

There are no isolated disasters and there is no progress that does not help the progress of all.

　　This situation is reflected in the minds of men. The contents of men’s minds have also become worldwide in scope and complexity. It is not enough for a man,seeking the welfare of his own people and country, to consider his domestic situation in relation to his immediate neighbors. World trends encompass every one of us, and it is by participating in them and contributing to them that we influence our own future.
