Faith and Action

January 8
PRAYER IS THE FOUNDATION. But at the same time if we fail to make concrete efforts, no matter how much daimoku we chant, our prayers will not be answered. Buddhism is reason. If we just chant without doing any work we cannot succeed in our jobs.

 "If we fail to make concrete efforts, no matter how much daimoku we chant, our prayers will not be answered." Even if you do a million of daimoku, but you don't put anything in action and merely it is a just a "desire" to "get it".... You will not get it!  "If we just chant without doing any work we cannot succeed in our jobs." Besides from striving in hard to get whatever that you are trying to get, you need to also participate in Buddhist activities as well. By doing that, you are enhancing/expanding/strengthening your karma and creating good deeds for your own life. You are sending positive energies to the universe in regards to your wish and desire.

As to put into action for my own life, I will try my best to participate in Buddhist activities and study even more to share with others whether it is to new people or to existing members of the SGI during meetings. You never know how your words can impact their lives!
