"How gratifying! You have associated with a friend in the orchid room and have become as straight as mugwort growing among hemp.”*

(On Establishing the Correct Teaching 
for the Peace of the Land -
WND-l, page 23)
Source: Experience in Faith, 
Seikyo Newspaper, Sep. 19th, 2026
*“A friend in the orchid room” indicates a person of virtue. The implication is that the company of a virtuous person works as a good influence, just as one is imbued with fragrance on entering a room filled with orchids. It is said that mugwort supported by hemp plants grows upright.

“Most people are so busy just trying to survive that they have little time to think about others.


“You, on the other hand, even while grappling with your own struggles and challenges, encourage fellow members, pray for people’s happiness and strive earnestly for kosen-rufu. This is the noblest way a person can live.


“Each of you will overcome your problems and hardships. Why? Because our mission as Bodhisattvas of the Earth is to demonstrate the great power of Nichiren Buddhism by triumphing over suffering through Buddhist practice."

"Each of you is dealing with your own struggles—with work, family or other personal challenges. Yet you continue to give your all for your fellow members and for Buddhism. I’m sure at times things feel especially difficult or overwhelming. Please know that I truly understand what you are going through.


“When I was racing around trying to get Mr. Toda’s businesses back on track, I not only held leadership responsibilities in the young men’s division but also served as a district leader, a chapter adviser, and an acting chapter leader. It was an enormous struggle just to find time to attend meetings.


“But I am firmly convinced that thanks to those challenges, I could build a strong foundation in faith, which became the cornerstone of my life. I was able to develop my abilities as a leader of our Buddhist movement and accumulate boundless good fortune.


"Hardships are truly a treasure."

"In his treatise 'On Establishing the Correct Teaching for the Peace of the Land,' Nichiren Daishonin writes: 'If you care anything about your personal security, you should first of all pray for order and tranquillity throughout the four quarters of the land, should you not?' (WND-1, 24). 'Order and tranquillity throughout the four quarters of the land' means the peace and prosperity of society and the world.


"If religious practitioners shut their eyes to humanity’s most pressing challenges and turn their backs on society, they abandon the fundamental mission of religion—to help people attain happiness. Genuine Nichiren Buddhists throw themselves into our troubled and chaotic world and strive to free people from suffering."

"You must simply make up your mind. Look at the world this year as a mirror. The reason that you have survived until now when so many have died was so that you would meet with this affair."

"The Renaissance, the period of cultural and artistic rebirth in Europe from the 14th to 16th centuries, was a transformational era in which God, viewed as absolute and reining over all from above, was brought down to the realm of the individual. This led to a rejection of a Church-centred worldview and to calls for liberating the human spirit. What followed, however, was not respect for individual dignity but rather the rise of new forms of external authority. This trend continued for several centuries, with people putting their faith in progress, in institutions, in capital, in science and even in nuclear power. But the value systems built upon such externals had reached a breaking point and were rapidly crumbling, leaving a profound emptiness in people’s lives.


“I believe that the guiding principles for the future must emerge from a religion deeply rooted in people’s hearts. The time has come for us to prioritise inner personal transformation over absolute faith in external authority. Though it may be a modest approach, I see such a ‘second Renaissance’ as a necessary trend of the times. Ordinary people will play the key role in achieving this, and their struggle must begin with changing their own lives.”


"The teachings of Nichiren Buddhism offers the means to make this possible.”

"Now more than ever the world needs to shift from a focus on material wealth to spiritual wealth, from materialism to respect for the dignity of life—a value system embodied

in these words of Nichiren Daishonin: ‘More valuable than treasures in a storehouse are the treasures of the body, and the treasures of the heart are the most valuable of all’ (WND-1, 851).


“I am confident that when this value system becomes firmly established in people’s hearts, we will find a way to unravel and resolve humanity’s greatest challenges, no matter how daunting. If inner destruction leads to external destruction, then it is only natural that inner harmony will, in turn, bring about external harmony.”


"Humanity will be able to open new creative paths to resolve even its most complex and difficult problems when people return to the fundamental Law of life taught in Buddhism.

"A fundamental solution to environmental problems cannot be achieved without shifting to a worldview that promotes harmony and coexistence with nature, ideas rooted in Eastern thought.


"The Eastern philosophy of Buddhism recognizes the innate preciousness of all living things. It also teaches that human life cannot exist apart from the natural environment. This principle—the oneness of life and its environment—teaches that living beings and their environment are distinct yet inseparable.


"According to this principle, a transformation in our inner state of mind inevitably influences how we interact with our natural environment, our external environment, enabling a transformation therein. It is a profound philosophy of harmony and coexistence, where internal and external change are deeply interconnected.


“Only with this worldview as our foundation, can we transform the existing one-way relationship between humanity and nature—characterised by control and subjugation—into a reciprocal connection where communication flows both ways. This shift will enable human beings to listen to the messages of nature and, through such interactions, foster a culture and spirit rich in sensitivity.


“Based on this perspective, I believe we can move away from a mindset of conquering and subjugating nature towards a philosophy of harmonious coexistence and, ultimately, of true oneness with nature.”

"If in a single moment of life we exhaust the pains and trials of millions of kalpas, then instant after instant there will arise in us the three Buddha bodies with which we are eternally endowed. Nam-myoho-renge-kyo is just such a 'diligent' practice."

(The Essential Passage in Each of 
the Twenty-eight Chapters of the
Lotus Sutra, 
Emerging from the Earth chapter 
- OTT, page 214)

“The purpose of the appearance in this world of Shakyamuni Buddha, the lord of teachings, lies in his behaviour as a human being"

"Life is full of ups and downs. In one sense, all things are transient. Even in loving couples, one partner will likely pass away first. We can’t avoid the suffering of having to part from loved ones. Transcending these impermanent phenomena, however, is the eternal principle of the Mystic Law. If we base ourselves on this principle and work to revolutionise our state of life, we can surmount the stormy waves of suffering, however relentless, with dignity and serenity and remain undefeated.


“That is why Nichiren Daishonin taught the practice of chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo and revealed the Gohonzon. He showed us the way to lead lives of eternity, happiness, true self and purity, and savour joy and ease in this world of impermanence."
