-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The great philosophy of this Buddhism of the sun is the greatest truth of all.
The more we study the writings of Nichiren Daishonin,
the more boundless courage and hope wells up from within.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"It must be ties of karma from the distant past that have destined you to become my disciple at a time like this. Shakyamuni and Many Treasures certainly realised this truth. 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, September 30th, 2011

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Buddhists aiming to "establish the correct teaching for the peace of the land" don't ignore the problems that arise in their local communities; they take such matters as their own concerns and strive earnestly to resolve them."
SGI Newsletter No. 8340, The New Human Revolution––Vol. 24: Chap. 4, Beacon 35, translated Sep. 29th, 2011.
