---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Courage is not just acting bravely. Buddhist courage embodies wisdom for 'perceiving the true aspect of reality' and triumphing over adversity.
"In life, we may encounter an endless array of unexpected challenges and daunting hardships. These may take the form of financial difficulties, human relations problems, illness, accidents and even the possibility of our own death. We may be assailed by storms of karma that plunge us into the depths of despair. But by opening the eyes of faith and 'perceiving the true aspect of reality,' we can see that everyone inherently possesses the indestructible life state of Buddhahood and, by chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, can manifest the life force of the Buddha to overcome every challenge and achieve a state of genuine happiness and fulfilment.
"That is why, in the Soka Gakkai, we see so many dramas of human revolution unfold as members confront every kind of harsh and bitter reality head-on."
The Buddhism of the Sun—Illuminating the World, (33) To My Dear Friends of the Youth Division-Part1 [of 5], Heroic Ordinary People Surmounting Every Obstacle, from the January 2018 issue of Daibyakurenge, translation released Sep. 2018
