Heart of a Lion King

The Bowie discussion meeting for September will feature the July Living Buddhism article 'Having the Heart of a Lion King Is the Key to Victory'. This is the cornerstone of 'changing karma into mission', the theme of this LB issue.

President Ikeda has said that overcoming hardships leads to immense benefit. The article cites several examples, including Alexander the Great, the farmers of Atsuhara, the experience of a men's division member and others..

A quote from the gosho, 'On Persecutions Befalling the Sage', encourages us to summon up the courage of a lion king. Each of us inherently possesses the heart of a lion king but we must awaken it within ourselves. The key is resolute faith that grows stonger 'day by day and month after month'.

Please study this article to gain its full impact.

See you Friday.
