[SGI-ToMyFriends-Wagatomo] 15th April 2012 To My Friends and Daily Gosho + 16th April 2012 Daily Enc.

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

Sunday, April 15th, 2012
-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Wherever youth take the initiative,
courage overflows and a bright future is born.
By having the spirit that each one of us must stand up
and be responsible for achieving kosen-rufu,
let's advance by exerting ourselves in the two ways of practice and study!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Because I have persevered without fear, there are now people who think my teachings may be true."
(The Royal Palace - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 489)
Selection source: SGI President Ikeda's guidance, Seikyo Shimbun, April 15th, 2012

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"My mentor in life, second Soka Gakkai president Josei Toda, said: 'It is because we have various problems and sufferings that we can deepen our faith and bring forth our Buddha nature. Furthermore, our prayers to share the Daishonin's Buddhism with someone and help them become happy will definitely touch that person's life.'

"Nothing is ever wasted in the realm of faith. All of your dedicated efforts for the sake of kosen-rufu will accumulate in your life as 'treasures of the heart,' causing you to shine with inner brilliance.

"Chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo in both times of suffering and joy, let's achieve victory after victory with unflagging optimism and dynamic vigour!"
