The aim of Buddhism is the happiness of the individual. It is the same with our organization for kosen-rufu. People do not exist for the sake of the organization; the organization exists to benefit people.

Daisaku Ikeda

To live is to be active, to be engaged in something. And a good life is the result of good actions. A wonderful life is realized through steady right action day after day. That’s why those who keep making effort, who always press on under any circumstances, are victors. From The Wisdom for Creating Happiness and Peace, part 3, revised edition, p. 60
