-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Our very best wishes go out 
to all those 
people who, in the midst of the summer,
are preparing for entrance or other exams.
This is obviously a crucial time for you.
May we assure you that
hard work definitely pays off.
Aiming for that final victory, 
let's all strive to put in our very best today!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"If you should fall into hell for some grave offense, no matter how Shakyamuni Buddha might urge me to become a Buddha, I would refuse; I would rather go to hell with you."

(The Three Kinds of Treasure
 - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin,
Volume 1, page 850)
Selection source: Teachings of Buddhism, 
Seikyo Shimbun, July 21st, 2015

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
What distinguishes someone as a truly cultured person, a person of outstanding character? The Swiss philosopher Carl Hilty (1833–1909) had a clear answer to this question. Cultured people, he wrote, always possess 'enthusiasm and eagerness for whatever is good.'"

SGI Newsletter No. 9274, The Women of Soka Are Suns of Hope, from the June 8th, 2015 edition of Seikyo Newspaper, translation released July 23rd, 2015. 

* The Japanese kanji is available by clicking on Seikyo Shinbun's web-site address at http://www.seikyoonline.jp/news/index.html
