--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"More valuable than treasures in a storehouse are the treasures of the body, and the treasures of the heart are the most valuable of all. From the time you read this letter on, strive to accumulate the treasures of the heart!"

(The Three Kinds of Treasure - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 851)
Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, September 15th, 2010

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"'With each challenge, I become stronger and happier! Each hardship enables me to grow and expand my life!'--this is the attitude of those who lead noble lives dedicated to creating value.

"The ancient Roman philosopher Seneca declared: 'The wise man is joyful, happy and calm, unshaken,' and 'The mind of the wise man is like the ultra-lunar firmament [the heavens above the moon]; eternal calm pervades that region.' This perfectly describes the lives of Soka Gakkai members.

"Every effort we make in the realm of faith becomes a precious and indestructible treasure for our lives. As the Daishonin asserts: 'All your virtuous acts will implant benefits and roots of goodness in your life' (WND-1, 4)."
SGI Newsletter No. 8082, OUR BRILLIANT PATH TO VICTORY, Praising the Great Champions of Kosen-rufu--Part 1 [of 2]. From the July 28th, 2010, issue of the Seikyo Shimbun, translated Sep. 14th, 2010
