For me, being part of a movement for peace is Growth. It's not absolute, neither is it a destination, it is a process. Although the tree is grounded in the dirt, it still flourishes

brightly representing how adversity in our lives also makes us stronger.

Throughout our life, there may be some good or bad days. I'm grateful that I have my comrades in faith to share both my happy and rainy days with. It is through this practice that I understand the importance of supporting each other in faith. Knowing that you are not alone to face all challenges and believing that every problems come with a solution by chanting Nam-Myo-Ho-Ren-Ge-Kyo, I'm fortunate to have this practise in my life. As per say, Gohonzon is like a parent which listens to our prayers and try to bring you to an equal life condition. It is crucial that we are not only practicing for ourselves but for others too. Hence, let's move forward for kosen-rufu activities, to support each other and to influence the environment in positive ways. We as the disciples of Nichiren Daishonin have the responsibility to contribute to the society and humanity.
