---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The aim of Buddhism is to enable all human beings to awaken to, tap, and actively manifest the incomparably noble Buddha nature within them. As the Daishonin says: 'One becomes aware of the Buddha vehicle [the Law] within oneself and enters the palace of oneself [the highest life-state of Buddhahood]. Chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo is what is meant by entering the palace of oneself' (OTT, 209). This is the essence of a Buddhism that is truly open to all people and illuminates the world with the light of hope.
"Our faith and practise -- as ordinary people who refuse to accept defeat -- are smiled on by the Buddhas and protected by the heavenly deities."

"My wish is that my disciples will be cubs of lion kings, never to be laughed at by a pack of foxes".
