[SGI-ToMyFriends-Wagatomo] To My Friends & Daily Gosho August 24th + Daily Enc August 25th

 

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

Tuesday, August 24th, 2010
-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The starting point for our daily publication, the Seikyo Shimbun,
lies in the spirit to take on great challenges for kosen-rufu
which is based on the oneness of mentor and disciple -- the essence of Soka which pulsates through our organization!
We are ever so grateful for your warm support day after day!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
The sutra reads, "Hoping to make all persons equal to me, without any distinction between us." This means that those who believe in and practice the Lotus Sutra are equal to Shakyamuni Buddha.

(Letter to the Sage Nichimyo - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 323)
Selection source: Gosho Study for September, Seikyo Shimbun, August 24th, 2010

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Countless streams converge to become a mighty river and ultimately flow into the vast ocean. Similarly, while our tireless efforts to bring together the voices of people seeking the eradication of nuclear weapons may seem small and insignificant, they are certain to grow into a powerful groundswell for peace."
