-- TO MY FRIENDS --
An irregular lifestyle or imbalanced eating habits
can often cause us to have an unhealthy physical condition. 
Let's each take responsibility 
for wisely managing our physical state
so that we can lead every day fulfilled
both physically and mentally.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"And Nichiren declares that the sufferings that all living beings
undergo, all springing from this one cause--all these are Nichiren's
own sufferings."

(On Reprimanding Hachiman - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Volume
2, page 934)
Selection source: Editorial, Seikyo Shimbun, July 17th, 2014

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"​From Mr. Toda, I learnt four vital cornerstones of fostering capable peopleguidance, education, training, and support. These can be defined roughly as follows: (1) guidance is helping people challenge and overcome their weaknesses and fear so that they can become happy; (2) education is setting an example and taking action together; (3) training is trusting, entrusting, and giving people opportunities to practice what they have learnt; and (4) support is recognising people's efforts, whether they are successful or not, and praising and looking out for each individual."
