A translation of President Ikeda's "Words of the Week"

December 13th - 20th, 2015
-- WORDS OF THE WEEK --
Let's make the last discussion meeting of the year 
the one where we celebrate all the successes of the year 
that everyone has achieved.
At the same time, let's make sure that
we express our deep appreciation to the families of our members
who have been so kind in offering their homes 
for our meetings throughout the year.
Let's have joyful discussions that are full of hope.
Now then is the time, to make that fresh new start 
for the new year!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Suffer what there is to suffer, enjoy what there is to enjoy. Regard both suffering and joy as facts of life, and continue chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, no matter what happens. How could this be anything other than the boundless joy of the Law? Strengthen your power of faith more than ever."

(Happiness in This World 
- WND, Vol 1, page 681)
Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin", 
Seikyo Shimbun, Dec. 13th, 2015

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Through strong faith, we can come to see our lives as clearly as if reflected in a mirror and open the palace that exists within us.

"With the Gohonzon as the 'banner of propagation of the Lotus Sutra' (WND-1, 831), let us continue expanding peace and happiness for ourselves and others. That is kosen-rufu."
