Friday, September 7, 2012: "Freedom doesn't mean an absence of all restrictions. It means possessing unshakable conviction in the face of any obstacle. This is true freedom."
Does this type of person (what you'd call a "real handful") sound familiar to anyone else? And if your answer is yes, then how do you transform your interactions with this type of personality?
"When people are unable to believe in their own Buddha nature, in their own inherent dignity, they lose fundamental confidence in themselves; they are gripped by endless anxiety and ruled by fear and cowardice, lashing out like cornered animals when threatened. Also, tortured by feelings of distrust, they regard others with envy and jealousy." ~Daisaku Ikeda

Friday, August 24, 2012: "Advancement—Nichiren Daishonin teaches the spirit that "not to advance is to retreat." The point is to continue forging ahead despite any storms or hardships that may arise, to be fearless and advance like a lion."
@mzdaimoku When we allow our fundamental darkness to take over, not only are we making ourselves feel lousy, but we destroy any benefit we may have created for ourselves. Negativity BLOCKS us from winning in life. I want the best for you and think it's absolutely inspiring that you're in school - you are so LUCKY and BLESSED to have that opportunity!
OMG - there were handlers, who weren't handling? If the Royals can prevent the press from publishing the NEWS because the news involves the Royals in a negative light, do you think anyone will ever hear from the handlers again? #ScaryThought

How'd the despicable girl get in to the cute little party, if she wasn't invited because of her cute little bikini body? Sounds like the Prince & buddy boy #ArthurLandon can't take responsibility. They weren't raised to be able to take care of themselves out in the real world. #Pathetic.
From the Writings of Nichiren Daishonin
Thursday, August 23, 2012: "How wondrous it is that, around two hundred years and more into the Latter Day of the Law, I was the first to reveal as the banner of propagation of the Lotus Sutra this great mandala that even those such as Nagarjuna and Vasubandhu, T'ien-t'ai and Miao-lo were unable to express! This mandala is in no way my invention. It is the object of devotion that depicts Shakyamuni Buddha, the World-Honored One, seated in the treasure tower of Many Treasures Buddha, and the Buddhas who were Shakyamuni's emanations as perfectly as a print matches its woodblock."
All I can say is WOW. Wow. WOW. Amazing. Powerful. True.
