MANY accidents happen in
society. Caution is of course important, but there is a limit to how
cautious one can be. Whether one is consciously aware of it or not, the
only sure and fundamental precaution is earnest prayer to the Gohonzon.
MIRRORS reflect our outward form. The mirror of Buddhism, however,
reveals the intangible aspect of our life. Mirrors, which function by
virtue of the laws of light and reflection, are a product of human
wisdom. On the other hand, the Gohonzon which, based on the Law of the
universe and life itself, makes it possible for us to attain Buddhahood
by providing us with means of perceiving the true aspect of our life, in
the culmination of the Buddha wisdom.
THERE are no deadlocks when you have faith. Through faith you can
overcome any and all problems and eternally advance towards ever more
expansive horizons of hope. This is the most wonderful way to live.
Hope costs nothing; it is free. Yet at the same time it is life’s most
valuable treasure.
WHEN you reach old age, you know in your heart if you are satisfied with
your life or not. No one else can know this or decide it for you. The
great challenge we face in our rapidly aging society is whether we can
honestly say at the end of our days on this earth that our life was well
spent.
MEETING others face-to-face is the only way. Meeting in person forges
bonds of trust and brings people together. It also plays a vital role
in fostering capable people. Our organization has achieved the global
development that it has today precisely because we have persistently
carried out such one-to-one dialogue. This is the unwavering formula by
which the development of our movement unfolds.
