* There is a Japanese national press holiday today - a chance to let the deliverers and all the other people involved in making a newspaper take a short rest! "To My Friends" was therefore not published today…back tomorrow though! A translation of President Ikeda's "To My Friends" published in the Seikyo Shimbun and more. Thursday, May 7th, 2015 --- DAILY GOSHO --- "There is no true happiness for human beings other than chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo.." (Happiness in This World - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.I, page 681) Selection source: "Teachings of Buddhism", Seikyo Shimbun, April 18th, 2015 Friday, May 8th, 2015 ---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ---- "A Buddha is not a superhuman being. One who has attained this state continues to experience problems, suffering, and pain, and is still subject to illness and to temptation by devilish forces. For that reason, a Buddha is a person of courage, tenacity, and continuous action who struggles ceaselessly against devilish functions. "No matter how lofty a state we may achieve, without persistent efforts to advance and improve, our faith can be destroyed in a moment." SGI Newsletter No. 9238, The Wisdom for Creating Happiness and Peace, Part 2: Human Revolution, 9.3 Buddhism Originates from Shakyamuni's Inner Struggle, from the April 2015 issue of the Daibyaku-renge, translation released 30th April, 2015 * The Japanese kanji is available by clicking on Seikyo Shinbun's web-site address at http://www.seikyoonline.jp/news/index.html -- KYO NO GOSHO -- "ISSAI SHUJO NAM-MYOHO-RENGE-KYO TO TONAURU YORI HOKANO YURAKU NAKI NARI" (Gosho Zenshu, page 1143) |
