Sunday, July 29, 2007
today, SSA (Singapore Soka Association) celebrated the formation of Young Men's Division (YMD), whichis officially formed by our late Second SGI president Josei Toda on the 11/7/1951 in Japan...
as at 2007, this is the 56th anniversary...
i'm so motivated to strive for the better of myself after...
in a form of...
wat can we do for the sake of human kind,
wat can we do for humanity,
wat can we do to attain absolute happiness,
wat can we do for society, etc...
after hearing all this,
our YMD chief, Leonard oso tell a total of 834 young men in the "Gratitude Hall" (in a particular hall of our building at Senja, CCK)
he quote from our mentor's guidance, some 20 years ago... saying tt 21st century is the age of the youth, 21 st century is the age of the women.
if those who studied management, they will discover tt there has been a shift in managing of pple...
from the method Commanding & Control...
to present day's Mentoring n Coaching...
in short, from the 强硬派 to a more 温和派...
it means... women are taking over the world...
but chief doesn't mean tt young men have to fight with women for power n authority,
neither do he mean tt now tt the women have emerged to take up leadership... young men can sit back, relax, n "enjoy the show".
but to continue to be in the front line of the organisation campaign...
(the rest of the speech is about propagation of Buddhism so on...)
of course i must answer to my mentor n chief's call...
to really excel in our own fields...
to give back to society...
to help those who are not as fortunate as us to receive any education, by helping them with the best ability we can possibly have...
in order to do this...
the first thing is to study hard for A levels...
get into University...
after graduation... will be the start of my contributions back to society...
we are told not to be blinded by greed when we are climbing up society's ladder...
or else... we'll fail...
we'll fail right to the bottom of the foundation tt we've build up...
therefore... now i'm really motivated...
i went passed this bridal studio...
saw a few wedding gown n this particular photo, with one fella wearing the "square hat" (or watever u all call tt) for university gradution...
i stare at tt studio for 10 secs... n was telling myself...
1.) i want my Miss Singapore University Wife to wear the most beautiful wedding gown ever existed....
n...
2.) i want to have a photo shot with my family, wearing tt "square hat"
I MUST DO IT!!!!!!!!!
got to go...
These 3 Japanese are Soka Gakkai's 3 founding president...1.) Tsunesaburo Makiguchi Sensei, founder of Soka, died in prison in 1944 (i think) as a POW for opposing the Japanese Militarist government for waging war in Asia, and the refusal to bow to Shintoism (the national religion at tt time, which "worships the sun" n symbolises war)
*Who says all Japanese love to have war?*
*Who says all Japanese are evil?*
2.) Josei Toda Sensei was released from prison around 1945 (i think)... rebuild the organisation, build up a foundation for the organisation by converting more than 750k households to Nichiren Buddhism (religion of Soka) single handedly was his mission. He passed away in 1958 due to his deteriorating health conditions after release from prison...
3.) Daisaku Ikeda Sensei fulfilled his mentor's (Josei Toda) wish to propagate the religion worldwide. he has done so, up to today, there are over 190 countries practising Nichiren Buddhism. he... is oso the mentor i've been telling u all about... He's 78 years old this year... :)
there are a lot more stories about him...
however i'm running out of time now...
this time i really got to go...
