Rejoice when you meet a strong opponent; For they help us develop and forge our own strength and ability. 🤗

每日箴言
池田大作出版著作

7月 7日
人生的充实与痛快取决于跨越了多少苦难。不管多大年龄,不苦战奋斗,精神就空虚。为了自己的幸福,为了充实,要自我奋斗,谱写自己挑战的篇章。

Daily Encouragement
Daisaku Ikeda's

July 7
Fulfillment and satisfaction in life are experienced to the extent that you have overcome various hardships and adversities. No matter how old you are, your spirit will wither if you don't continue to struggle. The point is to seek out and take on challenges, for the sake of your own happiness and fulfillment. You need to create a magnificent drama of unceasing endeavor.

📝Let's learn from Ikeda Sensei's guidance

🌈🇧🇪Ikeda Sensei's encouragements:

🥊🥊"A strong opponent helps us develop and forge our own strength and ability.
🫵🫵When you encounter some challenge, rejoice and say to yourself, "I have met a rare and worthy adversary!" 🤺🤺Greet everything positively, weather all storms with a strong, resilient spirit, and emerge triumphant.
🙏😇That is the Buddhist way of life."

🙏😇"As practitioners of Nichiren Buddhism, our ultimate goals are attaining Buddhahood in this lifetime and realising kosen-rufu.
🙏📿🪷The only way to achieve those goals is to employ the "strategy of the Lotus Sutra" (WND-1, 1001) and navigate our way through the stormy seas of life with an unwavering commitment to faith.
🙏📖✌️The purpose of Buddhist study is so that we can develop into truly exemplary practitioners of Nichiren Buddhism, courageous champions of faith and practice.
🛎📖We must never err on this point."

"The effect of such writings is like a little rain falling in a time of prolonged drought, which only makes the plants and trees more parched than before, or like dispatching one's weakest forces to lead the attack on a powerful opponent, which only makes the enemy more confident than ever."

There's no need to compare yourself to others either….Together let's set forth towards new goals, with a fresh spirit."Treasures of the Four Seasons, [22] Taking a Fresh Step Forwards Each Day, Hope News, January 1st, 2020 issue, translation released June 2022

"When we ordinary mortals, persons of incorrigible disbelief who are constantly drowned in delusion and suffering, desire to take faith in the Lotus Sutra, this is a sign that the Buddha nature within us is beginning to manifest itself."
