For Today and Tomorrow
Daily Encouragement by Daisaku Ikeda
Saturday, August 31, 2013
As long as we pray earnestly and sincerely with all our being, if we have strong and genuine faith, even though results may not be immediately visible, they will definitely manifest without fail in generations of our children and our children's children.  I would like all of you to have absolute confidence in this.




Buddhism Day by Day

Wisdom for Modern Life by Daisaku Ikeda
Saturday, August 31, 2013
Overcoming the four sufferings of birth, old age, sickness and death is not just a matter of theory. We mustn't move away from the issues of how we can lead healthy, fulfilling and long lives, and how we can die without suffering. Buddhism teaches the wisdom that enables us to do this.
