 For Today and Tomorrow Daily Encouragement by Daisaku Ikeda Sunday, January 20, 2013 In this lifetime, to demonstrate the power of faith in the Mystic Law to others some of you may have been born into poverty so that you could show actual proof by gaining secure and comfortable lives. Some of you may have been born with ill health so that you could show proof by growing strong and healthy. Irrespective of your situations, however, the light of faith in the depths of your beings will continue to shine on eternally with diamond-like brilliance.  Buddhism Day by Day Wisdom for Modern Life by Daisaku Ikeda Sunday, January 20, 2013 A complete lack of exertion or stress may seem desirable, but in fact it results in boredom and stagnation. It is essential that we keep making continuous efforts amid challenging circumstances, pushing forward with dynamic creativity and breaking through all obstacles. That is the way to develop new strength and achieve fresh growth, whether it be in the case of an individual or an organization.  This is an iceberg!!!
From the Writings of Nichiren Daishonin Sunday, January 20, 2013 Strengthen your resolve more than ever. 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 color is better than that of the indigo plant. The Lotus Sutra remains the same, but if you repeatedly strengthen your resolve, your color will be better than that of others, and you will receive more blessings than they do. The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, page 615 The Supremacy of the Law Written to Oto and her mother, Nichimyo, on August 4, 1275 |
