--- 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: Editorial, Seikyo Shimbun, June 25th, 2009

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The Czech playwright and novelist Karel Capek (1890-1938), who sounded a warning
against Nazi Germany, said: 'As long as our spirit remains unbroken, it will not be
dormant. A dormant spirit is like a river that does not flow. We call such a river a
dry river.'

"Never hesitate to speak the truth, to speak out for what's right. Say what is on
your mind. State your case clearly. Explain yourself at length so that your listener
can really understand and relate to what you're saying. Never remain silent. At
times, it may even be necessary to respond quickly and directly to confront malice or
prejudice. Our voice is our power. Our voice is our weapon for truth."
