--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Whatever trouble occurs, regard it as no more than a dream, and think only of the Lotus Sutra."
(Letter to the Brothers - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol. 1, page 502) Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, March 18th, 2013

---- WORDS OF THE WEEK ----
Spring, the perfect season to develop new friendships, is here.
Whenever we take action for the sake of other people's happiness,
a positive new drama begins.
Wherever we share this Buddhism and its philosophy,
joy and happiness is spread.
Let's bring a profusion of "flowers of dialogue" to bloom wherever we go
while accumulating countless "treasures of the heart."
*"More valuable than treasures in a storehouse are the treasures of the body, and the treasures of the heart are the most valuable of all. From the time you read this letter on, strive to accumulate the treasures of the heart!" - "The Three Kinds of Treasure", WND-I, page 851
