We should wake up every morning ready to take on the world. In that regard, doing a vigorous morning gongyo and chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, which enables us to start the day fresh and energetic, is a wonderful way to maintain health and well-being.

Daisaku Ikeda

Let’s cast aside selfishness, be unswayed by others’ approval or disapproval, and work tirelessly for people’s happiness and a brighter future. That is the way to bring forth inner strength and to attain Buddhahood. From The Wisdom for Creating Happiness and Peace, part 3, revised edition, p. 50

Daisaku Ikeda

Happiness is not just a word. It is not found in objects, nor is it determined by wealth, social status, or celebrity. The key, first of all, is to chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo. When we do so, we will feel an upsurge of life force. To feel joy in the depths of our lives, no matter what happens, to take delight in each moment of each day as we converse with friends and chant to our heart’s content—these are examples of genuine happiness.
