Orlando Bloom’s daily practice for peace amid fame and pressure

Actor Orlando Bloom shared how Nichiren Buddhism shaped his personal life and acting career. He began practicing at sixteen after meeting a Soka Gakkai member in London. A serious accident at twenty-one became a turning point, teaching him to turn poison into medicine. Bloom relied on chanting during auditions and while navigating public scrutiny. He found inspiration and grounding through his Buddhist practice and meeting Daisaku Ikeda.
