-- TO MY FRIENDS --
As the seasons change, let's watch out for those sudden changes in temperature.
By making a habit of washing our hands
and gargling regularly,
let's make every possible effort to look after our health.
Now is the time to establish a balanced "rhythm" in our daily lives
so that we may live each day in good health and high spirits.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Although I and my disciples may encounter various difficulties, if we
do not harbour doubts in our hearts, we will as a matter of course
attain Buddhahood. Do not have doubts simply because heaven does not
lend you protection. Do not be discouraged because you do not enjoy an
easy and secure existence in this life."
(The Opening of the Eyes - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol. 1,
page 283)

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"If one is determined to encourage people, one can always find a way to do so, no matter how busy one may be.
"...If the wellspring of one's spirit is brimming with intense commitment and determination, the refreshing waters of creativity and invention will well up powerfully. Continual encouragement is the driving force of the procession of happiness that is kosen-rufu.
"As Chinese premier Zhou Enlai (1898–1976) said: '[Humankind] should always advance, so we should all encourage each other and advance together.'[1]"
