-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Whether in that city or in this home -- let's hold the kind of discussion meetings that cause a blossoming of joy in everyone's lives.
May you be victorious! I will do so, too!
It's now time to focus on making a fresh new departure towards the coming year, dedicated to carrying out our solemn pledge for kosen-rufu.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"I entrust you with the propagation of Buddhism in your province. It is stated that 'the seeds of Buddhahood sprout as a result of condition, and for this reason they preach the single vehicle'"
(The Properties of Rice - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 1117) Selection source: Study corner, Seikyo Shimbun, November 10th, 2009

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Faith in the Mystic Law serves as our compass for navigating the rough seas of life and society. Living as we do in the defiled age of the Latter Day of the Law, it is all the more important that we are not swayed by negative influences, but make faith the centre of our daily life and existence."

SGI Newsletter No. 7883, LEARNING FROM THE WRITINGS OF NICHIREN DAISHONIN: THE TEACHINGS FOR VICTORY. [9] 'The Supremacy of the Law'--Part 3 [of 3]. Faith That Grows Stronger Is the Key to Eternal Victory, from the Sep. 2009 issue of the Daibyakurenge, translated Nov. 6th, 2009.
