--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"That is, in order to enter the true way, one leaves one's home against one's parents' wishes and attains Buddhahood. Then one can truly repay one's debt of gratitude to them."
(Letter to the Brothers - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, page 499) Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, August 13th, 2011

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"If we embrace our mission as Bodhisattvas of the Earth and dedicate our lives to kosen-rufu, we will be able to manifest the life-state of Buddhahood in this existence and pass into death without fear, upon which we can dwell in the world of Buddhahood of the universe, which is often referred to in the Daishonin's Buddhism as the 'pure land of Eagle Peak.' It represents the eternal 'home' of life itself and the eternal realm of comrades of the Mystic Law from time without beginning. Here, in the deepest dimension of life, we can be rejoined with our deceased family, loved ones, friends, and fellow members."
SGI Newsletter No.8294, SGI President Ikeda's Study Lecture Series, LEARNING FROM THE WRITINGS OF NICHIREN DAISHONIN: THE TEACHINGS FOR VICTORY,[29] "Letter to the Lay Priest Nakaoki". Translated from the June 2011 issue of the Daibyakurenge.
