--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"If in a single moment of life we exhaust the pains and trials of millions of kalpas, then instant after instant there will arise in us the three Buddha bodies with which we are eternally endowed. Nam-myoho-renge-kyo is just such a 'diligent' practice."

(The Essential Passage in Each of the Twenty-eight Chapters of the Lotus Sutra, Emerging from the Earth - The Record of the Orally Transmitted Teachings, page 214) 
Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shimbun, August 30th, 2015

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"There is a motto that my wife has taken to heart and often shares with others: 'Complaining erases good fortune, while chanting with gratitude creates eternal happiness.'

"...Practising resolutely and consistently for 10, 20, or 30 years will imbue your life with the refreshing breeze of eternity, happiness, true self, and purity. Your family will flourish and you will be able to build a beautiful realm of enduring happiness in your community."
