-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Irrespective of whether someone notices our efforts or mentions anything,
let us constantly make every effort to talk with our friends,
and to always be there to encourage and support them.
Let's all try to be kings and queens of the heart,
whom our friends can really feel at home with and trust!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Although I and my disciples may encounter various difficulties, if we do not harbour doubts in our hearts, we will as a matter of course attain Buddhahood."
(The Opening of the Eyes - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 283)
Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, Dec. 23rd, 2009

Thursday, December 24th, 2009
---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"If we strive for kosen-rufu with the heart of a lion king--in union with our mentor and the Mystic Law--we can attain Buddhahood without fail. We can transform even hell into a realm of enlightenment, or Land of Tranquil Light. Our families and communities will also undergo a positive change. We of the SGI, united by the bonds of mentor and disciple, are carrying out this most dramatic and fundamental of all revolutions and building an ever-growing global network of people dedicated to peace and happiness."

SGI Newsletter No. 7894, Human Revolution--The Quintessential Path of Life, from the January 2010 issue of Daibyakurenge, translated Dec. 17th, 2009
