--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"I entrust you with the propagation of Buddhism in your province. It is stated that 'the seeds of Buddhahood sprout as a result of conditions, and for this reason they preach the single vehicle.'"

(The Properties of Rice - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 1117)
Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, October 2nd, 2010

Sunday, October 3rd, 2010
---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"There is no organisation whose members are as dedicated in offering warm support and encouragement as the Soka Gakkai. It is an oasis of human harmony and a haven of happiness. Computers, no matter how advanced, cannot foster human beings. Textbooks alone are not sufficient for developing a sound character. Diamonds can only be polished by diamonds. Similarly, people are polished and perfected through their interactions with others. This is a universal and enduring truth."
SGI Newsletter No. 8087, YOUTH AND THE WRITINGS OF NICHIREN DAISHONIN, Building the Future--Part 1 [of 2], from the Aug. 13th, 2010, issue of the Seikyo Shimbun, translated Sep. 29th, 2010
