Daily Encouragement: Quotes From my Buddhist Mentor

A daily dose of wisdom

If you’re passive, you’ll feel trapped and unhappy in even the freest of environments. But if you take an active approach and challenge your circumstances, you will be free, no matter how confining your situation may actually be.

— Daisaku Ikeda (from Quotations by Daisaku Ikeda)

I just watched the movie about Harriet Tubman.

Now available on Netflix, the movie is based on the harrowing experiences and inspirational life of an iconic American freedom fighter, Harriet Tubman. HARRIET tells the extraordinary tale of her escape from slavery and transformation into one of America’s greatest heroes. Her courage, ingenuity, and connection with her higher conscious self, freed dozens of slaves and changed the course of history.

You talk about somebody who refused to be passive and challenged her circumstances to be free — she is a shining example.

Keep the faith.
