--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"If one befriends another person but lacks the mercy to correct him, one is in fact his enemy. But one who reprimands and corrects an offender is a voice-hearer who defends the Buddha's teachings, a true disciple of the Buddha. One who rids the offender of evil is acting as his parent."
(The Opening of the Eyes

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"When people with an awareness of their mission for kosen-rufu stand up, and the philosophy of respect for life based on the Mystic Law is transmitted from the people to the people and deeply absorbed into their lives, then society and the times will be transformed on a fundamental level.
"The expansion of our Soka network is the surest step forwards in building peace.
"The sun of the Buddhism of the people is rising now, shining ever more brightly as a source of hope.
"Let us set forth towards a golden age of victory for humanity!"
