[SGI-ToMyFriends-Wagatomo] 15th Nov. to My Friends and Daily Gosho + 16th Nov. Daily Enc.

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

Tuesday, November 15th, 2011
-- TO MY FRIENDS --
It is important that leaders treat our fellow members,
who we stride along with for kosen-rufu,
with the same respect as we would a Buddha.
The spirit of gratitude and appreciation for each individual
is the very source and strength of our noble advance!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Therefore, wherever we dwell and practise the single vehicle, that place will be the Capital of Eternally Tranquil Light."
(Reply to Sairen-bo - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, page 313)
Selection source: Together with the Gosho - President Ikeda's guidance, Seikyo Shimbun, November 2nd, 2011

Wednesday, November 16th, 2011
---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"If you are serious about achieving unity, you mustn't criticise or say bad things about other members behind their backs. That just gives negative functions a gap through which to enter and create schisms within the organisation, which could lead to the demise of the Daishonin's teachings.

"Mr. Toda often said that the Soka Gakkai organisation was more precious to him than his own life, because it was the only organisation in the world, indeed, in the universe, acting in accord with the Buddha's intent and decree to carry out kosen-rufu. As such, we have to protect it, he insisted."
SGI Newsletter No. 8375, The New Human Revolution––Vol. 25: Chap. 1, Light of Happiness 17, translated Nov. 11th, 2011
