We are at the half way mark for our 100 days with Sensei!
Time to stretch, redetermine and keep chanting!! Here's some encouragement from the New Human Revolution about resolving to keep striving, no matter what!
Shin'ichi went on: "President Makiguchi, who was also advanced in age, carred on his struggle even in prison, asserting the truth of the Daishonin's Buddhism to the very end. I, too, am resolved to keep striving as long as I live, into my 70s and 80s. I will keep speaking, keep writing, keep calling out for justice. If I am no longer able to walk, I will still be able to write. And if I can't use my hands, I'll still be able to talk about Buddhism, I'll still be able to chant to the Gohonzon and read the Gosho.
"I will continue exerting myself until my last breath leaves my body, even if I have to crawl on all fours. That's my determination. Please watch me. For that is the path of Buddhism and will represent the total victory in my life." (New Human Revolution, Vol. 16, Heart and Soul Chapter)
