A translation of President Ikeda's "Words of the Week"
published in the Seikyo Shimbun and more.
July 14th - 20th, 2014
-- WORDS OF THE WEEK --
Talking with one person and then another,
let's engage in conversations that inspire courage and conviction.
Constantly making an effort with such perseverance is
the formula for kosen-rufu to continue to spread forever.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Muster your faith, and pray to this Gohonzon.
Then what is there that cannot be achieved?"
(Reply to Kyō'ō - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Volume I, page 412)

—— DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ——
"In a well-known passage, Nichiren Daishonin writes:
'Though one might point at the earth and miss it,
though one might bind up the sky, though the tides
might cease to ebb and flow and the sun rise in the west,
it could never come about that the prayers of the
practitioner of the Lotus Sutra would go unanswered' (WND-1, 345).
Nothing is more powerful than prayer infused with a vow for kosen-rufu.
With such prayer, we can definitely break through any deadlock.
