En este ensayo se revisan minuciosamente las motivaciones de conversión de los miembros de la Soka Gakkai Internacional de México en diferentes fases del proceso, y se averiguan sus transformaciones para entender el grado de interiorización del nuevo mensaje religioso. Asimismo, se estudian algunas peculiaridades mexicanas que surgen de las interpretaciones de los valores propuestos por la organización que van caracterizando la identidad del movimiento en México.]]></p></abstract>

The motivations of the conversion process, which are divided in different phases, are examined in detail by finding out their transformations in order to understand the level of &#8220;interiorization&#8221; of the new religious message. In like manner, this article studies some Mexican peculiarities that arise from the interpretations of the values proposed by the organization, which characterizes the identity of the same movement in Mexico.]]></p></abstract>
