[SGI-ToMyFriends-Wagatomo] To My Friends & Daily Gosho June 10th + Daily Enc. June 11th

A translation of President Ikeda's "To My Friends" published in the Seikyo Shimbun and more.

Thursday, June 10th, 2010
-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Around areas where we hold meetings
it's important that we exercise some good common sense.
Let's show the utmost of consideration
towards the people living in the neighbourhood.
making sure that we never inconvenience or bother them,
particularly by talking in a loud voice
or by parking our means of transportation in an inconsiderate manner!
The advancement of the Soka Gakkai, throughout eternity,
depends completely on the level of trust we enjoy with our neighbours!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"A blue fly, if it clings to the tail of a thoroughbred horse, can travel ten thousand miles, and the green ivy that twines around the tall pine can grow to a thousand feet."

(On Establishing the Correct Teaching for the Peace of the Land- The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 17)
Selection source: "Myoji no gen", Seikyo Shimbun, June 10th, 2010

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The teaching to be spread in the Latter Day to free people from suffering is the great Law of the Daishonin's Buddhism of sowing--that is, Nam-myoho-renge-kyo--which has the power to directly activate the Buddha nature in each individual's life, irrespective of their capacity for understanding. As the fundamental 'seed of Buddhahood' by which all Buddhas are born, the Law of Nam-myoho-renge-kyo enables people of this defiled latter age to positively transform their lives on the most fundamental level."
