--- TO MY FRIENDS ---
Let's be cautious and aware of 
  how changeable weather can affect us!
It's important to wisely and carefully 
  monitor our health so as not to fall ill.
By getting into a good healthy 
  rhythmical daily life-style
    both physically and mentally,
let's lead a fulfilling 
  and meaningful existence 
    every single day!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Strengthen your faith day by day and month after month. Should you slacken in your resolve even a bit, devils will take advantage."

(On Persecutions Befalling the Sage 
- WND,Vol. 1, page 997) 
Selection source: "Kyo no Hosshin",

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"'You should realise that it is because of a profound karmic relationship from the past that you can teach others even a sentence or phrase of the Lotus Sutra.'
- From "A Ship to Cross the Sea of Suffering" (WND-1, 33).

"Our members are making valiant efforts, day in and day out, to engage in dialogue and share their convictions with others. They are exerting themselves for the sake of Buddhism, the happiness of their friends, and the welfare of society. Such actions are those of Bodhisattvas of the Earth, who share profound karmic ties. Their efforts are most certainly helping many people form a connection with Buddhism.

"Warmly supporting and encouraging those who are suffering; speaking out for truth and justice to create a society in which all can live in happiness—this is the heart of our movement.

"Our SGI network of hope and trust, which directly inherits Nichiren Daishonin's spirit, is the surest path for realising the ideal of 'establishing the correct teaching for the peace of the land.'

SGI Newsletter No. 9403, Advancing with the Gosho: Words of Encouragement from SGI President Ikeda, (15) Spreading Our Message for Peace, from 18th May, 2016, issue of the Seikyo Shimbun  translation released 7th June, 2016
