Tuesday, June 16th, 2015 ― TO MY FRIENDS -- As soon as we make a determination, let's start to take the action towards achieving it. "OK! Let's get to it!"

Tuesday, June 16th, 2015 --- DAILY GOSHO --- "Mount Sumeru is paltry in comparison to the towering debt you owe your father."

Stagnant water becomes putrid because it stands still. The same is true of our lives: not advancing is regressing.' "One cannot attain Buddhahood if, though one practices eagerly for a time, one later gives in to doubt and strays from the path of faith." SGI Newsletter No. 9254, Learning from the Writings of Nichiren Daishonin: The Teachings for Victory, [67] "The Two Kinds of Faith."
