"(Be diligent in developing your faith until the last moment of your life. Otherwise you will have regrets.) For example, the journey from Kamakura to Kyoto takes twelve days. If you travel for eleven but stop with only one day remaining, how can you admire the moon over the capital?"
(Letter to Niike - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 1027)

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The true essence of the humanistic teachings of Nichiren Daishonin's Buddhism is to be found in empathy and action, the struggle to 'relieve suffering and impart joy.' This struggle pulses with the spirit of Buddhist compassion, which powers our efforts for kosen-rufu, our great movement for the happiness of ourselves and others."
