"The name Count of Monte Cristo is synonymous with a person of courage, fortitude, conviction and perseverance. People with such qualities make kosen-rufu possible. That's why we must never retreat in the face of difficulties, no matter how daunting, but keep moving forwards with tenacity and determination until we achieve our goal. What blocks our way are self-limiting thoughts—telling ourselves that we've done enough, can't do any more, or have reached our limit. But the sun of victory shines when we dispel such thinking, summon forth our inner strength, and press on resolutely.

"Today, with our kosen-rufu movement steadily growing into a mighty river, it is important that all of you lead long and happy lives, without anyone being sacrificed or left behind. That is my heartfelt prayer and wish.

“To continue vigorously chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo with great conviction in faith, no matter what; to teach others about Buddhism and encourage them; and to live out our lives fully for the sake of kosen-rufu, showing actual proof of our own happiness—please know that this is what it means for us to give our lives for Buddhism in this day and age.”

"To give one’s life for the Law is not, by nature, an act of heroism that glorifies death. It is deciding that kosen-rufu is the purpose of our lives and, while grappling each day with the realities of society, persevering in faith and becoming champions of happiness. This is the great path of practitioners of Nichiren Buddhism in modern times.”

"Those who take action for kosen-rufu are Bodhisattvas of the Earth. The Daishonin tells us that these bodhisattvas possess the four noble virtues of the Buddha—eternity, happiness, true self, and purity.

“'Eternity' means that the state of Buddhahood inherent within Buddhas and all living beings abides eternally throughout the three existences—past, present, and future.

“'Happiness' is a state of tranquility free from suffering. 

"'True self' means that Buddhahood is our true and intrinsic nature, an independent, indestructible strength.

“'Purity' means that no matter how corrupt and polluted the age, our lives function purely, like a clear, flowing spring. 

"By establishing a life state imbued with eternity, happiness, true self and purity—a state born from our resolve and efforts to selflessly spread the Mystic Law —we can genuinely 'enjoy ourselves at ease.'

"We strive in our faith and practice so we can 'enjoy ourselves at ease' (see LSOC16, 272)—in other words, to enjoy a serene and unhindered state of happiness. People often think that gaining wealth and fame will automatically bring happiness. But if we look for happiness outside ourselves, pulled this way and that by our desires, we’ll never know true fulfilment and satisfaction. Though we may get what we want, our joy will be short-lived. Soon we’ll feel empty again. Human desires have a way of growing and expanding, and if we can’t get what we want the next time, we’ll become dissatisfied and anxious.

"Such is the limited pleasure gained from fulfiling worldly desires. On the other hand, 'boundless joy of the Law' describes the supreme and absolute happiness of attaining enlightenment. This happiness does not come from the outside but wells up from the depths of our being.

"That is why Nichiren Daishonin declares: 'There is no true happiness for human beings other than chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo' (WND-1, 681). The 'boundless joy of the Law'—true happiness—is found in chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo. More importantly, true happiness is found in practising for both ourselves and others. As the Daishonin says: 'You must not only persevere yourself; you must also teach others. . . . Teach others [about Buddhism] to the best of your ability, even if it is only a single sentence or phrase' (WND-1, 386)."

“One who has fallen from the ground recovers and rises up from the ground.  Those who slander the Lotus Sutra will fall to the ground of the evil paths, or of the human and heavenly realms, but in the end, through the help of the Lotus Sutra, they will attain Buddhahood."

("The Proof of the Lotus Sutra"

"Of course, to advance kosen-rufu, we each need to be ready to devote our lives selflessly to spreading the Law. Only with such firm resolve can we attain Buddhahood in this lifetime and transform our karma.

"To be ready to do this means deciding that life’s ultimate purpose is kosen-rufu. It means demonstrating the power of the Gohonzon and the truth of Nichiren Buddhism in our lives and way of living, not for fame or personal gain but to share the teachings with others.

"We carry out Soka Gakkai activities and pray earnestly that, for the sake of kosen-rufu, we can become healthy, transform our financial difficulties, build a harmonious family, and so on. Prayers based on a vow for kosen-rufu are the prayers of the Buddha and the Bodhisattvas of the Earth; therefore, they activate the protective functions of the universe."

"Nothing is as complicated or changes as subtly from moment to moment as the human mind. We attain fulfilment and happiness by cultivating strong and unwavering minds.

"There are times in life when we may ask why we find ourselves confronting seemingly inexplicable storms of karma. The aim of our Buddhist faith and practice is to develop a strong mind, a spirit that will enable us to overcome such challenges and remain undefeated by anything.”

"Concerning prayer, there are conspicuous prayer and conspicuous response, conspicuous prayer and inconspicuous response, inconspicuous prayer and inconspicuous response, and inconspicuous prayer and conspicuous response. But the only essential point is that, if you believe in this sutra, all your desires will be fulfilled in both the present and the future."

"When we resolve to devote ourselves to kosen-rufu for as long as we live, we connect on the deepest level with Nichiren Daishonin, the Buddha of the Latter Day of the Law. A fearless strength emerges, and the joyous life state of a Buddha pulses within."
