-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's spend time studying the Gosho
together with our fellow members who are new to the practice!
It's by constantly studying the basics
that we are able to forge a strong indomitable faith.
Let's continue to challenge ourselves each and every day!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"This one word 'together' means that, as long as they are together
with Nichiren, they will reach the treasure land. But if they are not
together with him, they will fall into the great citadel of the Avichi
hell."
(Ongi kuden - Gosho Zenshu, page 734, The Record of the Orally Transmitted
Teachings, page 78)

—— DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"When seniors in faith rejoice in members' victories as if they were their own, it can powerfully inspire and motivate them.
"In contrast, when senior members neither praise nor encourage members, or simply ignore their efforts, they are missing the opportunity to enable their juniors to make great strides forwards in faith."
