Life's trials are actually our great treasures that hone and strengthen us. If we can sincerely look at them that way, we'll achieve immense growth.

🌞Good Day Myo Ho friends!
🙏Nam Myo Ho Renge Kyo to you.
🙆♀️Together let's encourage one other.
👋👋 Faith is realising where you are and triumphing over reality.
👋👋In Buddhism nothing is wasted.
👋👋But no matter how wonderful our dreams, how noble our ideals or how high our hopes, ultimately we need courage to make them a reality. We can come up with the greatest ideas or plans in the world or be filled with boundless compassion for others, but it will all come to nothing unless we have the courage to put those intentions into action.
👋👋Without action, it's as if our dreams and ideals never existed.
🧐🧐Q: I have a dream but I am not sure what I can do to pursue it or how things will unfold….🙇♀️🙇♂️
📚The New Human Revolution Volume 9, chapter "Young Phoenixes" pg 162-163
🇧🇪Ikeda Sensei ✍️
💁🏻♀️"A young woman (Kimiko Kudo), whose leg was disabled by polio, shared her concern that she would like to become a teacher, but her disability would make it difficult for her to fulfil the physical requirement needed for it and her family could not afford to pay for her to go to college.
💁🏻♂️🇧🇪In response to her,
Ikeda Sensei gave the following guidance.
🙏🙏"You have the Gohonzon!
🫵You mustn't be swayed…. Everyone has
some kind of problem to deal with.
💁🏻♀️💁🏻♂️There is not one person in the world
blessed with everything.
🇧🇪💪To be a Soka Gakkai member is to bravely challenge every situation and circumstance and become a victor in life.
🛎🛎🛎The question is not what will happen to you; it's what you're going to make happen.
🧑🏻🏫"If you wish to be a teacher, then
decide that you're going to, no matter
what.
👉If you don't have the money for college, you can work part time to pay for it.
👉👉Or you can work during the day
and go to night school.
👋👋"Dedicating your life to your mission
is not some kind of idealistic talk.
🛎🛎It isn't an intellectual game. Faith is
realising where you are and triumphing over reality. The light of faith shines in
a person who surmounts difficulties.
🫵🫵🫵"Your mission is to become the
strongest, brightest and most pure- hearted of all, regardless of your circumstances, and to live a life in which you can declare that you are supremely happy…
🙅🏻♂️🙅🏻♀️Don't be defeated.
🛎🛎Whatever happens, don't let yourself be defeated.
💪💪💪Become strong and do your very best!"
📝Let's learn from Ikeda Sensei's guidance
💁🏻♀️💁🏻♂️"There's absolutely nothing wrong with aiming to be the best. But you need to clarify your goals each step of the way and challenge yourself each day, sparing no pain or effort to achieve them.
🛎🛎Dreams and determinations are two different things.
🫵🫵If you simply long for what you'd like to be but fail to work at it with persistence and painstaking diligence, then you're just pursuing an empty dream.
💁🏻♀️💁🏻♂️If you were really resolved to become the best, then you'd already be taking concrete steps and working with all your might in that direction.
💪✌️Success is another name for repeated, unflagging effort."

People's connections
are the basis of a
safe and secure society.
Through making phone (voice) calls,
writing "letters," etc.,
let's offer warm words
of encouragement to our friends!
Let's build and expand
the solidarity of hope
starting with
our immediate surroundings!

"Well then, within these Buddhist teachings, what practice is to be carried out in order to free oneself from the sufferings of birth and death?
Simply the practice of the wonderful Law of the single vehicle."

以弟子的奋战开创"时代"
不论在艺术或学问上，师弟胜利都是取决于弟子的自觉。无论于何时何地，都要抱持弟子的自觉，以师心为己心奋起前进。这就会湧出师弟不二的勇气。
一切皆取决于弟子。弟子的奋斗，就是开创扩大崭新广宣流布"时代"的关键。
现今正要自觉自己最崇高伟大的使命，自豪地扩大年轻正义的阵容！
永远繁盛昌隆、常胜不败的创价大城，是要靠你们的热情与力量来构筑的。
《胜利的人学》

28th Jul. DAILY GOSHO
Ice is made of water, but it is colder than water. Blue dye comes from indigo, but when something is repeatedly dyed in it, the colour is better than that of the indigo plant. The Lotus Sutra remains the same, but if you repeatedly strengthen your resolve, your colour will be better than that of others, and you will receive more blessings than they do. 🙏🏻
The Supremacy of the Law
7月28日，御书圣训：
献给您的每一天。
冰 虽 从 水 出 而 寒 于 水，青 虽 出 于 蓝 而 反 复 染 之，则 其 色 胜 于 蓝 。虽 同 于 法 华 经 修 行，反 复 坚 其 志 者，则 色 胜 他 人，且 多 利 生 。
《致乙女函》 (《身轻法重抄》)
冰虽然是由水变出来的，却比水更寒冷； 青色虽然是从蓝草提取出来的，可是一再反复浸染，它的色泽也会变得比蓝色更鲜艳 。同样是在修行法华经，倘能再加深信心，不断实践的话，气色也会比别人更显得红润，功德也会很清楚地显现出来 。 🙏🏻

🙏28th July Daily Guidance by Daisaku Ikeda:
A personal awareness is very important. When we do something, we should do it whole-heartedly and on our own initiative, not dragging our feet and only taking action when someone has hold us to. Personal awareness means self-awakening. The deeper your own awareness, the more your horizons will expand, and the more profound your life will become.
七月二十八日今日指导:
"自觉＂很重要。做事情要全心全意，自动能发，并不是被人说了，才不得己去做。＂自觉＂即自己觉醒。能够＂自觉＂，自己的世界就会扩大，人生境界就会提高。🙏
