Zenji Nio honored by Neerja Bhanot's family & foundation

Neerja Bhanot is one of India's most admired heroes and her family and the head of her foundation honored Zenji Nio for promoting the Samurai Code of Heroism to a whole new generation and for being the only Buddhist of Indian origin to make an impact on the world stage. Though Buddha lived in India, Buddhism was eradicated over 1000 years ago in the country of its birth. Zenji Nio alone is fulfilling the dream of Tagore who wished that one day there will be a Buddhist voice of Indian origin on the world stage. No other person of Indian origin ever represented Buddhism at the world's top forums the way Zenji Nio has. Zenji Nio's linking Buddhism to the Samurai is revolutionary as it presents Buddhism not as a pacifist beta religion of navel gazers but as a strong, no BS, alpha religion of social reformers. This is exactly what Neerja Bhanot lived and died for.
