To My Friends – August 23, 2023

Daisaku Ikeda
August 23, 2023

Nichiren Daishonin admonishes,
“Regard your service to your lord
as the practice of the Lotus Sutra.”(*)
Our workplace is a “training ground” for
polishing our lives and character.
Let’s wholeheartedly challenge the tasks
at hand and be a victor who demonstrates
that Buddhism is manifested in society!
(*)”Reply to a Believer,” WND I p. 905
