Good morning. Are you well today? This is Shima, of Oubaitori.com. Morning Daimoku, day 1,157.
A lot happened this morning, so I am only recording this now.
“I’ve come this far”
Life brings all kinds of things. Just when you think, “Good. I’ve come this far. From here it begins,” something happens that makes you say, “What?”
That is where I am right now. In between. Having come this far, will the last rung of the ladder be pulled away? Or is this a new turn? The truth is, I have spent these last two or three days troubled, right here in that gap.
It will absolutely be all right
There is no result yet. But the state of my heart, of my life, is this: it will absolutely be all right.
What I can see and understand in the reality of this saha world. And the conviction taking place in the world of faith, inside my life. I believe I have now come to the moment of their final clash of blades.
I will not give up on myself
That is exactly why, each day, with daimoku as my foundation — whenever it may be, whatever may happen — I will not give up on myself. I will hold to my conviction all the way through. That is the resolve I want to go forward with.
Let’s Daimoku! I look forward to this day with you.
From evening into night today, there is another big turn, separate from what I just spoke about.
Every single day, I start all kinds of battles, and I fight them with my life on the line.
I take everything head-on, and I move forward from there. Thank you.
