Abstract

The article discusses the effects of the March 2011 Sendai Earthquake, the subsequent tsunami, and the accident at the Fukushima Dai-Ichi nuclear power plant on Japan. The author discusses a trip through Japan with the Dalai Lama as well as a visit to the town of Iwaki Yumoto, located just outside the exclusion zone. The author suggests that Japanese culture values resiliency, stoicism, and fatalism and will help the Japanese to persevere.
