Wise words August 17, 2008 Although I am a practitioner of Zen, I have enjoyed this book a great deal (I was given it as a present). President Ikeda of the SGI (the lay branch of Nichiren Buddhism) is a renouned author and world figure. His writings of daily guidance occassionally are more specific for Nichiren Buddhism, but mostly reflect universal Buddhist philosophy and thought. Any Buddhist, or non-Buddhist for that manner, can find wisdom to live by in this book.
Great and powerful Guidance! June 24, 2008 Powerful and insightful reading for daily living. And it can be put into action. Thank you, President Ikeda! Diane E. Williams
Awesome February 8, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book is great!!! Recently, we had a very very tragic loss in our family. My 21 yr old brother, all American college football player with absolutely no enemies, was randomly attacked and beaten to death one night while leaving a store by a group of 6 guys. It was a gang initiation beating. I turn to this book everyday for support. It seems like every single teaching, applies to me personally so it's helped me a lot through these past couple of weeks! Especially during this struggle I have with losing my younger brother so suddenly and in such a cruel manner.
The Best Way of Life December 31, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is a book of Daily Encouragement, written by Soka Gakkai International(A world wide Buddhist organization) President, Daisaku Ikeda. However, it doesn't tell you to chant or meditate everyday but it teaches you how to live your life best way possible. Live your life with hope, courage and never give up spirit.
Perfect Gift November 11, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is such an encouraging book by Daisaku Ikeda. We are giving them to our fellow friends and members as birthday gifts. It seems that each birthday for each friend has a perfect quote that is meaniful to them.
I'm also planning to give this book to my friends that are not members as they are "life truths" as a dear Christian friend said to me after she read some quotes by Daisaku Ikeda.
