[SGI-ToMyFriends-Wagatomo] To My Friends & Daily Gosho March 13th + Daily Enc. March 14th

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

Friday, March 13th, 2009
-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Our careful, thoughtful and considerate action,
even if it is over a very small matter,
often can make a big difference and eventually give birth to a great
wave of positive change.
Let's become the type of leaders who clearly understand the profound
meaning that even seemingly minor things, can be very important.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"But now you must build your reputation on the Lotus Sutra
and give yourself up to it."

(The True Aspect of All Phenomena - The Writings of
Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 385) Selection source:
"Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, March 13th, 2009

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The secret to victory lies in deep and genuine unity that respects and
treasures diversity. This is a point made by Nichiren Daishonin. Many other
wise figures throughout history, including the ancient Chinese general Zhuge
Liang, have noted its importance. As the famous Malaysian proverb teaches
us: 'Bersatu kita teguh, bercerai kita roboh. (Where there is unity there is
strength, where there is division there is destruction.)'"
