[SGI-ToMyFriends-Wagatomo] July 17, 2015 To My Friends & Daily Gosho + July 18, 2015 Daily Enc.

 

A translation of President Ikeda's "To My Friends" published in the Seikyo Shimbun and more. Friday, July 17th, 2015 -- TO MY FRIENDS -- Let's share our ongoing experiences with others, confidently and proudly, just as it is, struggling as we may be to overcome our problems and hardships, courageously challenging to achieve our human revolution. Sharing what it is we are going through, in and of itself, inspires everyone else to also have hope! Friday, July 17th, 2015 --- DAILY GOSHO --- "... those with the heart of a lion king are sure to attain Buddhahood." (Letter from Sado - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Volume 1, page 302) Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, July 17th, 2015 Saturday, July 18th, 2015 ---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ---- "Society is awash with crass sensationalism and malice, inundated by false and misleading information. There are many corrupt individuals who deceive others, negative influences that drag people down into unhappiness and misery. "Yet even in such circumstances, we can always correctly perceive the essence of life, illuminated by the unparalleled mirror of the Daishonin's writings. With a sound view of life, human existence, society, and the universe, we can survey everything clearly and without distortion. Wielding the "sharp sword" of faith, we can sever ties with all negative influences and advance without confusion or doubt along the correct path of eternity, happiness, true self, and purity. "When we read the Gosho, we can come into direct contact with the towering life state of Nichiren Daishonin himself. We can break out of our small, constricting shell and open a vast, expansive state of life. Like the sun from time without beginning, the light emitted from the magnificent life of the Buddha of the Latter Day of the Law completely bathes our entire beings."
