--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"For instance, there are certain Hinayana bodhisattvas, not yet freed from delusion, who draw evil karma to themselves by their own compassionate vow. If they see that their father and mother have fallen into hell and are suffering greatly, they will deliberately create the appropriate karma in hopes that they too may fall into hell and share in and take their suffering upon themselves. Thus suffering is a joy to them."

(The Opening of the Eyes- The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 243)

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"We need to stir a new wave of change based on the human revolution of each individual. It is crucial that the awakened masses, remaining deeply rooted in the reality of daily life, inspire each other, expand a circle of trust and sympathy, and achieve a happy society by peaceful, gradual means. This is our grand movement for kosen-rufu."
SGI Newsletter No. 7992, The New Human Revolution--Vol. 23: Chap. 3, Courage 2, translated May 12th, 2010
