--- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ---

"Mr. Toda often said: 'The greater our ideals, the greater our lives will become. No one becomes a true leader without hard work and effort.'

"This is the meaning of 'so that we and other living beings all together may attain the Buddha way' (LSOC7, 168). By dedicating our lives to kosen-rufu along with our fellow members and exerting ourselves in bodhisattva practice, we break through the shell of ego, our lesser selves. We establish lives based on our true, strong, greater selves and live them dauntlessly. We can accumulate everlasting treasures of the heart and lead fulfilling, triumphant lives with assurance and joy.

"This is the ultimate purpose of our Buddhist practice."

The Buddhism of the Sun—Illuminating the World, [87] Youth and Faith—Awakening to Our Own and Others' Dignity, Living for a Shared Vow , July 2022 issue of Daibyakurenge, translation released March 2023
