BioThis journal contains (mainly) Buddhist quotes, articles, and topics that I find interesting. All from a Nichiren Soka Gakkai perspective. Feel free to add and/or leave comments....
"Although I and my disciples may encounter various difficulties, if we do not harbor doubts in our hearts, we will as a matter of course attain Buddhahood. Do not have doubts simply because heaven does not lend you protection. Do not be discouraged because you do not enjoy an easy and secure existence in this life. This is what I have taught my disciples morning and evening, and yet they begin to harbor doubts and abandon their faith.........Foolish men are likely to forget the promises they have made when the crucial moment comes."
