True love should be transformative; a process that amplifies our capacity to cherish not just one person but all people. It can make us stronger, lift us higher and deepen us as individuals. Only to the extent that we polish ourselves now can we hope to develop wonderful bonds of the heart in the future.

Daily Encouragement

Posted on November 25, 2016 by SGI-USA Austin

Please do not forget your mother’s love or the hardships she has endured for you. I am convinced that while people keep the memory of their mothers’ loving faces alive in their minds, they will never go far astray. Similarly, as long as we bear in mind Nichiren’s profound compassion and live in deep appreciation of it, our lives will be illuminated brightly by the light of Buddhahood. And enveloped in the Gohonzon’s great compassion, we will walk along a path that is filled with tranquillity and immeasurable joy.
