在持續信心方面, 我們要小心避免犯上慢心, 虛偽或高傲的態度.
真正的信心是一心向御本尊持續勤行與唱題的修行, 以精進不虛之心向前進.
In maintaining faith, we must be careful to avoid such attitude as haughtiness, pretension or conceit.
True faith is to pray single-mindedly to the Gohonzon, continue the practice of gongyo and daimoku and forge ahead without affectation.

我們很幸運能受持御本尊.
我們有轉換宿命的信心, 並且唱誦題目--大歡喜的泉源.
御書說:"南無妙法蓮華經是歡喜中的大歡喜."
因此, 當我們向着御本尊唱題目, 我們能夠將生命中的大歡喜湧現出來時, 我們能夠解決一切的苦惱與不幸.
We are fortune enough to embrace the Gohonzon.
We have faith, which enables us to change our destiny, and we chant daimoku, the source of tremendous joy.
The gosho states, "Nam-myoho-renge-kyo is the greatest joy of all joys." In this sense, as we can resolve all of our problems and unhappiness.

若缺乏信心, 世俗的苦惱將增加不幸的因.
受持妙法能轉換根本的苦惱而至成佛.
這些根本的苦惱將成為宿命完全改變, 步向成佛大道與完美人格的力量.
這正是信心的偉大.
Without faith, worldly sufferings function to increase the causes which lead to unhappiness.
Embracing Myoho allows one to transform fundamental sufferings, or earthly desires, into enlightenment.
These fundamental sufferings then become the power which enables one to undergo a complete change of destiny, and travel towards the great path of enlightenment and perfected character.
This is the greatness of faith.

當某國家內唱題的人數增加時, 這個國家可說是處於朝向實現立正安國, 即是通過宣弘本門佛法以"安國"的道路上.
當然, 一個國家要和平, 其鄰國也必須和平.
當每一個國家都領悟到"立正安國"的原理時, 真正的世界和平方可實現.
When the number of people in a particular who chant daimoku grows, it can be said that the nation is on a course towards realising rissho ankoku, or securing the peace of the land through propagation of true Buddhism.
Of course, for one country to be at peace, its neighbouring countries must also be at peace.
True world peace can be established when each individual nation realise this principle of rissho ankoku.

無論你目前的生活環境如何困難或幸福, 這不過是你生命中的其中一面罷了.
佛法所觀乃事物真實的一面, 它着眼於生命的整體, 尤其是決定人生成敗的生命末章的結果.
No matter how difficult or how fortunate the circumstances in which you may presently live, this is only one aspect of your life.
Viewing things as they truly are, Buddhism focuses on one's life taken as a whole and, in particular, on the outcome of its final chapter in determining its success or failure.

當我們將自己奉獻於自行化他的修行時, 除了受持御本尊與一心唱題外, 就無其他的方法可以築起跨越三世的真正幸福的永恆境界了.
There is no other way to build an eternal condition of true happiness that spans the three existences of past, present and future than to embrace the Gohonzon and chant daimoku wholeheartedly, as we devote ourselves to practise for ourselves and for others.

信心退轉是因為受制於自身的短淺眼光, 膚淺, 增上慢, 怨嫉或自私的慾望而起的.
無論你目前的信心有多強盛, 如果你中途退轉的話, 就不能說你曾有真正的信心.
A person stops practising because he is controlled by his own narrow-mindedness, shallow attachment, arrogance, ill feelings towards other believers or selfish desire.
No matter how strong your faith may appear to be now, if you discard it at some point in your life, your faith cannot be said to have been true.

櫻花樹在春天美麗地綻放花朵, 吐露着芬芳.
同樣地, 人類也必須盡可能讓自己的生命如櫻花般盛放, 發揮出真實的潛能.
在最基本的層次上使之成為可能的除了對廣宣流布的深厚使命感與責任感外, 別無他徑.
Cherry trees blossom beautifully, adorning themselves with colour and fragrance in the Spring.
Likewise, human beings must allow their lives to blossom, expressing their true potential to the fullest extent.
What makes this possible on a most fundamental level is nothing other than a profound sense of mission and responsibility for kosen-rufu.

勤行是實踐信心的根本和基礎.
如果一直以來都不間斷地實踐勤行, 一旦停止作勤行的話----舉一個容易理解的例子----就好比電流中斷一樣.
即使擁有獨一本門的御本尊, 如果沒有實踐勤行, 也沒法得到任何功德.
Gongyo is the basis and foundation of the practice of faith.
If one who has practised gongyo regularly up till now should stop doing it, it is ----to give a readily understandable example----like switching off an electric current.
Even though one has the Gohonzon, which is absolute, without the practice of gongyo, he can gain no benefit.

充滿苦惱與問題的現實絕不會消失.
不是被它們影響而陷入苦海, 便是戰勝它們並建立起幸福之山.

The reality of problems and troubles will never disappear.
One can either be influence by them and sink into the great sea of suffering, or overcome them and build a mountain of happiness.

在吸引鐵或鋼的能力上, 磁鐵與鐵有很大的差別.
同樣地, 在信受御本尊的人當中, 每個人所得到的功德, 自然會因個人信心的強弱而有所差別.
A magnet and a piece of iron which has not been magnetised differ greatly in their ability to attract other pieces of iron or steel.
In a similar way, even among those who embrace faith in the Gohonzon, the benefit one receives will naturally differ according to the strength of one's faith.

當我們以耐心勇敢地行動, 並且以異體同心的精神向御本尊祈求時, 沒有障礙是能持久的, 重要的是我們必須對這一點抱着絕對的確信.
No obstacles can stand for long when act with patience and courage and when we pray to the Gohonzon in the spirit of itai doshin (many in body, one in mind).
The important point for us is to have absolute conviction in this.
