Buddhism for you -- Determination 18

Just as one cannot graduate from school without passing a test, one cannot become a Buddha without defeating devilish functions.
To the extent that we struggle against and defeat such obstacles, we approach Buddhahood.

Hope is life's greatest treasure.
A life without hope is bleak and gray.
If you have no hope, create some!

******
Do not be afraid of people's scornful laughter or society's criticism.
When you stand up, have the self-confidence that you can conquer the world.--Josei Toda
