--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Believe in this mandala with all your heart. Nam-myoho-renge-kyo is like the roar of a lion. What sickness can therefore be an obstacle?"

(Reply to Kyo'o - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 412)
Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, September 7th, 2012

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"For senior leaders to be able to really discern the motivations of their juniors, they need to be sure there is no corruption or distortion in their own lives. If the mirror of our own life is clouded or warped, we can't see others clearly. Instead, we'll be partial and interpret things based on our own likes and dislikes.

"That's why it's so important to constantly polish our own life, with chanting daimoku as our top priority. We can thereby continue to uphold correct and pure faith, illuminated by the Gohonzon, the Gosho, and the guidance of our mentor in kosen-rufu."
