"To be dragged around by other people or the environment is not the way of life the Lotus Sutra teaches. True happiness is not feeling happiness one moment and misery the next. Rather, overcoming the tendency to blame our sufferings on others or on the environment enables us to greatly expand our state of life. . . ."
-Daisaku Ikeda-

the Eternal Teachings of Nichiren Daishonin", pg.237]
