Buddhism for you -- Prayer 20

Buddhism is not a religion that closes its eyes to people suffering; it is a teaching that opens people's eyes.
To turn away our eyes from the contradictions of society and rid ourselves of all worldly thoughts is not the way of Buddhist practice.

A coward cannot have any of his prayer answered.--Nichiren

******
The power of prayer is the decisive means for overcoming periods of stagnation or difficulty.

******
By continuing to pray, you can reflect on yourself with unflinching honesty and begin to move your life in a positive direction on the path of earnest, steady effort.
