[SGI-ToMyFriends-Wagatomo] 16th Oct. To My Friends and Daily Gosho + 17th Oct. Daily Enc.

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

Sunday, October 16th, 2011
-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's support all of our young people
who are really challenging themselves to do their best.
It's important that we take action together with them,
talk with them, and praise the efforts that they make.
Once they have that self confidence,
it will definitely become their strength.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Regard your service to your lord as the practice of the Lotus Sutra. This is what is meant by 'No worldly affairs of life or work are ever contrary to the true reality.'"
(Reply to a Believer - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 905)
Selection source: The World of Nichiren Daishonin's encouragement, Seikyo Shimbun, October 16th, 2011

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"We mustn't let ourselves grow old inside. The Daishonin assures us that, through faith in the Mystic Law, we will grow younger and our good fortune will accumulate (cf. WND-1, 464).

"Becoming ever more youthful with each year of Buddhist practice—this is the vibrant spirit of SGI members."
