Small matters are important.
Let's set specific goals and targets for this summer and
do our very best to have victorious one each and every
day!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"I am praying that, no matter how troubled the times may
become, the Lotus Sutra and the ten demon daughters will
protect all of you, praying as earnestly as though to
produce fire from damp wood, or to obtain water from
parched ground."

(On Rebuking Slander of the Law and Eradicating Sins - The
Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 444) Selection
source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, July 28th, 2008

July 28th-August 3, 2008
---- WORDS OF THE WEEK ----
Let's do gongyo and chant daimoku resonantly and maintain
a good rhythm of daily life by using our wisdom.
That is how we can lead a sound life both physically and
spiritually.*
Cheerfully and in high spirits,
let's challenge ourselves to develop friendships with as
many people as we can and have a great summer of 'human
revolution'!
