Welcome to my Blog. I'm a practising member of SGI-UK a lay buddhist organisation practising the Buddhism of Nichiren Daishonin. It is often described as a practise of Active Humanism which I think reflects it perfectly. The basic practise is the chanting of 'Nam Myoho Renge Kyo' on a daily basis and putting the practise into use in our daily lives thereby making this a practical rather than esoteric form of Buddhism. For more information, please follow the Buddhist links on the right of this page

“Prayer is the courage to persevere. It is the struggle to overcome our own weakness and lack of confidence in ourselves. It is the act of impressing in the very depths of our being the conviction that we can change the situation without fail. Prayer is the way to destroy all fear. It is the way to banish sorrow, the way to light a torch of hope. It is the revolution that rewrites the scenario of our destiny... Believe in yourself! Don't sell yourself short! Devaluing yourself is contrary to Buddhism, because it denigrates the Buddha state of being within you.”.
Daisaku Ikeda.

Thought I better ...

Post .. Well .. it's been a while since the last one though nothing really to report. Partly because I've actually been busy. After the 2 dead months before Xmas, it's all gone really busy. I know, when chanting, that one of my determinations this year was to be more financially better off but I was hoping for a lottery win .. not having to work hard lol.
Other than that .. mainly been Buddhist meetings ... Planning to go to the new Wakefield Street centre in London soon .. one Saturday maybe. In fact, was thinking of going today but have arranged to do some home visits with our HQ leader who's coming up from London today ... at least I should earn a lazy TV night anyway :-)
Anyway .. best get ready .. hope you enjoyed my most dull post .. ever :)
