[SGI-ToMyFriends-Wagatomo] To My Friends & Daily Gosho Feb. 18th + Daily Enc. Feb 19th

A translation of President Ikeda's "To My Friends" published in the Seikyo
Shimbun and more.

Wednesday, February 18th, 2009
-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's openly and frankly talk to our children
about the "spirit of the oneness of mentor and disciple",
and about "our personal family history of kosen-rufu".
The sincerity with which parents earnestly live out their lives,
will undoubtedly leave a lasting impression on their children.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"I entrust you with the propagation of Buddhism in your province."

(The Properties of Rice - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol. 1, page
1117)
Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, February 18th, 2009.

Thursday, February 19th, 2009
---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The nobility
of a smile
exuding invincible resolve
is the hallmark of
a brilliant victor.

"The German author Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832) embodied the
spirit of one who remains positive and overcomes any sense of inadequacy
through tireless effort. Likewise, no matter what painful challenges we may
face in life, we should turn them into opportunities to launch a bold
counterattack."

SGI Newsletter No. 7713, Be Invincible in Spirit, from the March 2009 issue
of Daibyakurenge, translated Feb.17th 2009
