-- TO MY FRIENDS --
It is precisely when we are undergoing an ordeal
that we have the opportunity to grow.
By firmly laying down the roots of faith within our lives,
let's take on life's challenges with the strong determination
to never ever be defeated, to never ever give in!
Then, without fail, our lives will truly blossom with victory.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"The sutra's statement, 'Those persons who had heard the Law dwelled here and there in various Buddha lands, constantly reborn in company with their teachers,' cannot be false in any way."

(The Heritage of the Ultimate Law of Life - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 217)
Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, Feb. 21st, 2011

February 21st-27th, 2011
---- WORDS OF THE WEEK ----
If we make the firm decision that we will win,
then we most certainly will!
This is the Buddhist practice of absolute victory and success!
No matter how hard our challenges or problems might be,
let's be absolutely determined to win and adorn our lives with glory.
