[SGI-ToMyFriends-Wagatomo] May 30th - June 5th, 2016 Words of the Week, May 30th Daily Gosho, May 31st Daily Encouragement

 

A translation of President Ikeda's "Words of the Week" 
published in the Seikyo Shinbun and more.

May 30th - June 5th, 2016
-- WORDS OF THE WEEK --
It's through taking action 
that we develop the pride of life.
If we take action for the sake of kosen-rufu,
a drama unfolds 
and priceless treasures of the heart 
are accumulated.
Let's bravely take on the challenges we now face 
and take bold courageous action!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"A woman who embraces the lion king of the Lotus Sutra never fears any of the beasts of hell or of the realms of hungry spirits and animals."

(The Drum at the Gate of Thunder 
- WND, Vol. I, page 949)
Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin",

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"You are all ambassadors of the Soka Gakkai. With that awareness, I hope you will create an expanding circle of support and understanding for our movement in your neighbourhoods and local communities.

"People develop an appreciation of the Soka Gakkai and Nichiren Buddhism through their interactions with members. That's why the Daishonin says: 'The Law does not spread by itself: because people propagate it, both the people and the Law are respectworthy' (GZ, 856).[1]

"Your daily behaviour, even simple greetings to your neighbours, can open the way for kosen-rufu."

SGI Newsletter No. 9399, The New Human Revolution––Volume 27: Chapter 2, Justice 37, translation released 25th May, 2016

[1] From "Hyaku Rokka Sho" (The One Hundred and Six Comparisons); not included in The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, vols. 1 and 2.
