"It is senseless to blame others or your environment for your miseries. Change begins from the moment you muster the courage to act. When you change, the environment will change. The power to change the world is found nowhere but within our own life." -Daisaku Ikdea-

As I begin my 21st year of Buddhist practice with SGI-USA, I find great joy in sharing quotes, principles, guidances and poems from Daisaku Ikeda . Some are poems and thoughts of my own. I hope you will be encouraged.

Relationship

"True character is only forged through hardship and suffering. Moreover, it is the mentor-disciple relationship, not organizational structures, that builds character. Many great scholars, pioneers and leaders of the world have come to note how crucial the mentor-disciple relationship is."

-Daisaku Ikeda-
