Daily Quote

Happiness doesn’t exist on the far side of distant mountains. It is within you, yourself. Not you, however, sitting in idle passivity. It is to be found in the vibrant dynamism of your own life as you struggle to challenge and overcome one obstacle after another, as you clamber up a perilous ridge in pursuit of that which lies beyond.

Daily Encouragement

Forward! Always forward! This is a basic spirit of Buddhism. Nichiren’s teaching is the Buddhism of true cause. We live with our gaze fixed on the future, not hung up on the past. To advance eternally–this is the essence of life and the essence of what it means to be a practitioner of Nichiren Buddhism.
