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

Saturday, May 28th, 2011
-- TO MY FRIENDS --
When the weather keeps changing and the temperature drops,
it is important that we live wisely and are careful.
It's good common sense to put on an extra layer of clothing
and to have anything else that might be needed.
By making every possible effort to maintain good health,
first and foremost,
let's lead successful lives each and every day.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"I am praying that, no matter how troubled the times may become, the Lotus Sutra and the ten demon daughters will protect all of you, praying as earnestly as though to produce fire from damp wood, or to obtain water from parched ground."
(On Rebuking Slander of the Law and Eradicating Sins - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 444)
Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, May 28th, 2011

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"'Now when Nichiren chants Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, he is enabling all living beings to attain Buddhahood in the ten thousand years of the Latter Day of the Law.'
From The Record of the Orally Transmitted Teachings, p. 41.

"Kosen-rufu is a lofty ideal as well as a practical endeavour with a vision stretching ten thousand years into the future. Therefore, each earnest step we take in the present will contribute to opening wide the path to happiness for all humanity into the eternal future."
SGI Newsletter No. 8241, LIVING THE GOSHO: WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT FROM SGI PRESIDENT IKEDA, (28) Opening the Great Path to Happiness for Humanity Ten Thousand Years into the Future, translated May 27th, 2011
