Miyazawa Kenji (1896–1933) was a poet and fairy tale writer who created a new world in Japanese literature. In 1896, Kenji was born in a merchant's house that runs pawn shops and old clothes, and grew up in the harsh environment of crop failure and years of famine. In 1914, when he graduated from Iwate Prefectural Morioka High School, he read the "Fahua Sutra" and was deeply touched by it. As a result, he became a devout Fahua believer.

In 1920, he joined the National Day of the Religion, the organization based on the "Fahua Sutra", and was inspired by the unity of religion and art, and began to concentrate on creative activities. The doctrine of "Fa Hua Jing" is the foundation of Miyazawa's literary creation, and he is therefore known as a religious thinker.

In 1921, Miyazawa Kenji became a teacher of the Prefectural Hanamaki Agricultural School and taught for 4 years. In the meantime, he began to write oral poems and published poems and fairy tales in local newspapers and comrades. In 1924, at his own expense, he published a collection of poems, "Spring and Ashura" and a collection of fairy tales, "A Request for a Variety of Restaurants."
In 1926, Kenji resigned from the agricultural school and lived a life of self-reliance. He organized the agricultural youth to set up the "Rossiers Association" and began to engage in cultural activities, such as teaching agricultural chemistry and peasant art theory courses, enjoying records, practicing ensembles and so on. In addition to his agricultural activities such as free fertilizer improvement, he also seeks the integration of agriculture, art, science and religion. His activities caught the attention of the police, and in addition to suffering from tuberculosis, he was frustrated. Since then, his lung disease has been rehabilitated as an engineer in the gravel factory, but due to the recurrence of the disease, he eventually left a large number of unpublished manuscripts such as "The Night of the Galaxy Railway", which has long since passed away.

Although Miyazawa Kenji won high praise from some poets before his death, he was barely known. The large number of poems and fairy tales he left behind are fresh, imaginative and unrestrained, and they are in harmony with nature. The profound insights into civilization that have been embedded in it have gradually won the hearts of many readers and become one of the "national writers" representing Japan. Today, a variety of picture books, films and stage plays adapted from his work are available.
