For Today and Tomorrow Daily Encouragement by Daisaku Ikeda Saturday, April 7, 2012 Strength is the source of happiness.  We mustn't shy away from life's challenges.  We mustn't be defeated. Refusing to be defeated equals victory. A person who perseveres to the end is a winner. In the course of promoting our movement, the Soka Gakkai has never pulled back in the face of any hindrance.  We have kept moving forward.  And that is the key to our success. Never to retreat a single step, no matter what-that is the Soka Gakkai spirit.  Those who embrace this spirit can achieve unlimited victory.       Buddhism Day by Day Wisdom for Modern Life by Daisaku Ikeda Saturday, April 7, 2012 The Buddhist teaching of the inseparability of evil and good means that everything can be made one or the other in an instant, according to what we harbor in our hearts.  Everything begins with the self.  A change in one's outlook or intention triggers a change in the self and radiates outward to effect society-wide revolutions.  This idea is what we in the SGI refer to as "human revolution."         Daily Wisdom From the Writings of Nichiren Daishonin Saturday, April 7, 2012 If you try to treat someone's illness without knowing its cause, you will only make the person sicker than before.
