[SGI-ToMyFriends-Wagatomo] Words of the Week July 20th - 26th, Daily Gosho July 21st + Daily Enc. July 22nd

* Today was a Japanese Press Holiday so there was no "To My Friends." BUT we held over "Words of the Week" to cover that gap! Hope that was OK! All the best!

A translation of President Ikeda's "Words of the Week"
published in the Seikyo Shimbun and more.

July 20th-26th, 2009
-- WORDS OF THE WEEK --
The Daishonin states,
"In battles soldiers regard the general as their soul."*
Now it's the time for our Men's Division members to play
their great part in our activities for kosen-rufu!
Brimming with a truly youthful spirit,
let's each exhibit our very best talents and abilities
and be a match for a thousand!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"For those who have faith in the Lotus Sutra, but whose
faith is not deep, it is as though a half moon were
lighting the darkness. But for those who have profound
faith, it is as though a full moon were illuminating the night."

(The Essence of the "Medicine King" Chapter - The Writings
of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 94) Selection source:
Editorial, Seikyo Shimbun, July 20th, 2009

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
'Fostering others leads to one's own growth. As Mr. Toda taught: 'You have to be on the lookout for talent, and then develop it. As you strive for kosen-rufu together, you help each other grow.'
