--- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ---

"When we understand the eternal nature of our lives, we can endlessly deepen and expand our life states. By chanting and taking action based on the Mystic Law—which is eternally abiding across the three existences of past, present, and future—we can appreciate the preciousness of each moment of our existence. We can make every irreplaceable moment a treasure for opening the way to eternity

"Dr. Margarita Vorobyova-Desyatovskaya, a leading Russian scholar of the Lotus Sutra, observed that despite living in an age of advanced technology and space travel, human life continues to follow the unchanging law of birth, aging, sickness and death. Those who believe in the power of the Lotus Sutra, she added, are able to overcome all difficulties and sufferings without fear.*"
