--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"More valuable than treasures in a storehouse are the treasures of the body, and the treasures of the heart are the most valuable of all. From the time you read this letter on, strive to accumulate the treasures of the heart!"

(The Three Kinds of Treasure 
- WND, Vol. I, page 851)
Selection source: 
"Kyo no Hosshin", Seikyo Shinbun,

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"
On the left side of the Gohonzon is inscribed: 'Those who make offerings will enjoy good fortune surpassing the ten honourable titles.' Offerings in the form of working wholeheartedly for kosen-rufu bring us benefit even greater than that gained by making offerings to the Buddha of the ten honourable titles. The Gohonzon is aware of everything. Precisely when we are dealing with great challenges, we can accumulate immeasurable fortune and benefit. We can quickly transform our karma. That is the Soka rhythm of victory."

SGI Newsletter No. 9432, Creating the New Era, (17) Solidifying Our Ever-Victorious Citadel of the People, from 12th June, 2016, issue of the Seikyo Shimbun, translation released 1st Aug., 2016.
