-- TO MY FRIENDS --

May our voices

resound with integrity and earnestness!

Even just a word or two, 

if full of sincere concern,

can inspire a friend

and have the strength 

to cause a major change 

in their heart.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---

"...always remember that believers in the Lotus Sutra should absolutely be the last to abuse one another.  All those who keep faith in the Lotus Sutra are most certainly Buddhas, and one who slanders a Buddha commits a grave offense."

("The Fourteen Slanders", WND-1, page 756)

Selection Source:  The New Human Revolution

Seikyo Shimbun:  April 22nd, 2016
