Inspiration Station

Here, my mentor and third Soka Gakkai International president Daisaku Ikeda describes so wonderfully the concept of HAPPINESS.

In a sense, life is a series of difficulties. No life is without its problems. But happiness is not merely an absence of suffering.

Happiness shines in a life state capable of overcoming any form of suffering or hardship and transforming it into joy. This is a state of genuine fulfillment. It is the ability to advance continuously, always creating value, never daunted by adversity. Buddhism enables us to achieve a better life, a life of complete satisfaction, while accumulating treasures of the heart that will endure forever.

The place where you are now is vital. Never avoid what you must face. Challenge your circumstances and steadily persevere. The path toward victory opens from where you stand.
