EVERYONE (without exception) is precious; Let’s give something, anything… let’s give others HOPE. It’s FREE!

每日箴言
池田大作出版著作

7月 21日
一出事,就被自己的情感所左右,冲动行事,这样不会成为"名演员"。任何时刻都能凝视自己,控制自己,堂堂地、悠然地去演出"人生","人格"的力量就在于此。

Daily Encouragement
Daisaku Ikeda's

July 21
One cannot become a starring player in life if one is easily swayed by one's emotions over every little thing. Strength of character lies in performing the drama of life with courage and confidence, practicing self-reflection and self-control in all circumstances.

🌞Good day Myo Ho friends !
🙏Nam Myo Ho Renge Kyo to you.
🙆‍♀️Together let's encourage one other.

👋👋In light of the Mystic Law, everything has meaning and nothing is futile.
👋👋Our Buddhist practice enables us to use every situation to move our lives forward.
👋👋Each one of us rises and rests together with the Buddha [ that is the Gohonzon ].
👋👋 Our practice of morning and evening gongyo is the foundation for advancing on the correct path of life
a path aligned with the Law that pervades the three existences of past, present, and future- leading the most meaningful existence.
🛎🛎🛎Especially important, as the phrase "morning after morning we rise up with the Buddha" indicates, is doing an invigorating morning gongyo.🙏💪✌️

📝Let's learn from Ikeda Sensei's guidance

💁🏻‍♀️💁🏻‍♂️"One's attitude can totally transform one's situation.
🛎🛎The thing is to decide to spend each day happily and productively
- wherever you happen to be.
😇🙏A wise person can create value under any circumstances."

🇧🇪Ikeda Sensei says:
💁🏻‍♂️💁🏻‍♀️"To put all our energy into the present moment, with great hope for the future—that is the mark of a person who is wise in the way of living. …
🙏🪷Faith in the Mystic Law is a source of infinite hope.
🛎🛎No matter how adverse your present circumstances may be, even if it seems you have been defeated, it's important that you stand up with strong resolve to turn your situation around and demonstrate the limitless transformative potential of the Mystic Law.
💪💪Only with all-out effort, with the determination to create something from nothing, can we understand genuine faith. 🇧🇪The intense, arduous struggle of creating value—
✅turning loss into benefit,
✅evil into good,
✅baseness into beauty—is the Soka Gakkai spirit and the essence of our practice of Nichiren Buddhism."🙏

"Everyone, without exception, is a treasure tower. Each person should shine in their own unique way. By enabling people to do so, we create a world of true mutual respect in accord with the principle of 'cherry, plum, peach and damson' (cf.OTT, 200), a world in which we all can shine and illuminate each other."

"I resolved that, whatever might happen to me in the future, I must not bear any hatred toward others. This determination has perhaps acted as a prayer, for I have been able to come safely through any number of trials.
And now I am faced with no such difficulties."

Nichiren Daishonin (WND, 686)

发掘对方的优点、加以赞赏
要如敬佛一般尊敬为广宣流布竭力贡献的人。这就是《法华经》的"最上第一之相传(最为重要的相传)"。
赞扬为广布奋斗的人会增加功德。
御书云:"当别人大加赞美自己时,就会湧现出'即使多么困难也要努力达成'的决心。这就是'赞美的言词'所产生的力量。'(〈诸法实相抄〉,御书一四三O页,大意)
领导人不会忽视一直在背后默默耕耘的人,即使只有一点点的进步,都马上察觉而加以赞扬,使大家满怀希望和干劲。
让每个人发挥特长,互相配合一一这样的团队合作产生确信的波动。
《胜利的人学》
