--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Single-mindedly chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo and urge others to do the same; that will remain as the only memory of your present life in this human world."

(Questions and Answers about Embracing the Lotus Sutra 
- WND, Vol 1, page 64)
Selection source: SGI President Ikeda's guidance, 
Seikyo Shimbun, December 12th, 2015

Tuesday, December 15th, 2015
---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The Daishonin states: 'In the Latter Day of the Law, no treasure tower exists other than the figures of the men and women who embrace the Lotus Sutra' (WND-1, 299).

"All people equally possess within them the life state of Buddhahood. Everyone who embraces the Mystic Law is a supremely noble treasure tower.

"Nothing—not our race, descent, ethnic origin, gender, or economic circumstances—can prevent the life state of the treasure tower from shining brilliantly in our lives. When each of us comes to shine in this way, we will together create a magnificent, shimmering forest of treasure towers that will illuminate society and the entire globe with the great light of Buddhist humanism."

SGI Newsletter No. 9323, The Song of Human Victory, Traversing the Path of Victory Based on Nichiren Daishonin's Writings, from 16th Sep., 2015, issue of the Seikyo Shimbun, translation released 4th Dec. 2015
