Buddhism for you -- Prayer 24

It's natural for prayers to center on your own desires and dreams.
There's no need to pretend that you're praying for something lofty when you're not.
By praying naturally, without affection or reservation, for what you seek most of all, you'll gradually come to develop a higher and more expansive life-condition.

Compassion is the very soul of Buddhism.
To pray for others, making their problems and anguish our own; to embrace those who are suffering, becoming their greatest ally; to continue giving them our support and encouragement until they become truly happy--it is in such humanistic actions that Nichiren Buddhism lives and breathes.
