"If Nichiren's compassion is truly great and encompassing, Nam-myoho-renge-kyo will spread for ten thousand years and more, for all eternity, for it has the beneficial power to open the blind eyes of every living being in the country of Japan, and it blocks off the road that leads to the hell of incessant suffering."

"Dying with the wish to continue working for kosen-rufu in our next lifetime is proof that we have lived a regret-free life based on the Mystic Law and that we will enjoy a triumphant state of being forever one with the world of Buddhahood.

"We have all witnessed countless fellow members happily expressing such positive determinations for their next lives. Through steadfastly polishing themselves over long years of Buddhist prac-tice, Soka Gakkai members quite naturally enter the path of eternity, happiness, true self and purity! throughout past, present and future.

"The Daishonin states: 'Passing through the round of births and deaths, one makes one's way on the land of the Dharma nature, or enlightenment, that is inherent within oneself' (OTT, 52). We can serenely make our way on the 'land of our dharma nature'— the realm of Buddhahood-which is inherent within us in both life and death.

"Each of us can enjoy a golden journey throughout eternity filled with the 'boundless joy of the Law,' as we follow the path of our vow."

"You may lose a loved one who has not practised Nichiren Buddhism themselves. But as long as we, their family members or friends who do practise, continue to chant for them, there is nothing to worry about. We pass on to them the benefits we have accumulated through our Buddhist practice—this is the true meaning of offering prayers for the deceased in Nichiren Buddhism.

"The important thing is to chant sincerely and maintain faith in the Mystic Law; it is not superficial formalities. And nowhere in the Daishonin's writings does it say that prayers for the deceased are ineffective unless offered by priests."

"Nevertheless, the Daishonin reminds us to continue chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo 'as much as we possibly can' (cf. WND-1, 458)—that is, to transform our grief into prayers for the eternal happiness of the deceased."

"There is no 'one-size-fits-all' solution to the diverse spectrum of problems people face. As such, the crucial question we must ask ourselves is how each of us can become that hand of support extended to those facing hardship, how we can strengthen the kind of relationships where we can share in each other's joy at having overcome our respective ordeals. In the Lotus Sutra, the teaching in which the essence of Buddhism is expounded, we find these analogies: 'like a fire to one who is cold, ... finding a ship in which to cross the water,... someone in darkness finding a lamp...' *

"The feelings of relief and even joy that well up in a person who is aided in passage to safe haven after having been caught in the undertow of life's trials and having given in to despair...

We must aim to construct a society in which such feelings—the palpable sense that it is, indeed, good to be alive—are shared by all."

"When you advance towards a goal, obstacles are certain to rise in your path, and that is the moment of truth when the struggle with yourself begins. By vanquishing your own inner weakness—the tendency to give up or compromise—and continuing to press onwards, the situation will change for the better. Victors are those who practice self-mastery."
