Deep Value in Chanting Daimoku

Nichiren Daishonin declares: "Human beings (will) never fail to prosper when they make good causes".
Where SGI members are active, a flourishing society.
Second Soka Gakkai president Josei Toda said: "Chant daimoku before the Gohonzon and live out your lives to the fullest, in your own circumstances and capacities."
Though you may face a seemingly impossible obstacle, if you challenge it with daimoku, you will pave the way for advancing in your human revolution and transforming your karma. Every struggle has a profound meaning.
A person of strong faith is happy and victorious.
- Daisaku Ikeda

NHR - Sensei's Guidance

From NHR  Vol 9  Page212  Very encouraging guidance from Sensei - Mrs Usha

Faith is meaningless unless we carry it through until the very end.  If we dont persevere in faith , we cant transform our karma or build a foundation for genuine happiness.  But people have a tendency to be defeated by their own weakness. They may practise in earnest for a time, but then grow cowardly when faced with opposition or criticism  to their faith.  Or when they fall ill or hit a deadlock, they may become fainthearted and start having doubts.

Others abandon their faith because of a grudge held against another member arising from some minor personal conflict and then leave the Soka Gakkai the harmonious community of lay believers with a direct connection to the Buddha.  To avoid this, it is important that we base our lives not on our subjective emotions but on the teachings of Buddhism and the Gosho.
