For Today and Tomorrow
Daily Encouragement by Daisaku Ikeda
Tuesday, September 10, 2013
Youth means to cherish hope; it is a time of development.  Youth means to challenge oneself; it is a time of construction.   Youth means to fight for justice; it is a time of action.




Buddhism Day by Day
Wisdom for Modern Life by Daisaku Ikeda
Tuesday, September 10, 2013
Neither the pure land nor hell exists outside oneself; both lie only within one's own heart.  Awakened to this, one is called a Buddha; deluded about it, one is called an ordinary person.   The Lotus Sutra reveals this truth, and one who embraces the Lotus Sutra will realize that hell is itself the Land of Tranquil Light. -Nichiren
