[SGI-ToMyFriends-Wagatomo] To My Friends & Daily Gosho April 30th + Daily Enc. May 1st

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

Thursday, April 30th, 2009
-- TO MY FRIENDS --
"I am determined to dedicate myself to realising my mentor's dreams
and to fulfilling my mission for the sake of kosen-rufu!"
To make up our minds, with such a resolute spirit, is what
the strategy of the Lotus Sutra is all about.
To all of my dearest friends,
take the initiative yourselves and achieve truly wonderful victories!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"What does Bodhisattva Never Disparaging's profound respect for people
signify? The purpose of the appearance in this world of Shakyamuni Buddha,
the lord of teachings, lies in his behaviour as a human being."

(The Three Kinds of Treasure - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1,
page 852) Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, April 30th,
2009

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"We should regard minor incidents as potential warnings for major accidents.
If we view them as reminders to be vigilant and thereby recommit ourselves
to safety, recheck everything, and reconsider all possibilities, we can
prevent major accidents and failures from occurring. Minor accidents can
serve as a springboard to success if we take them seriously and use them as
opportunities to renew our determination."

Currents 44, translated April 28th, 2009
