---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"What is the purpose of our Buddhist study? It is to encourage one another in faith and together attain Buddhahood in this lifetime. It is to strengthen our unity of 'many in body, one in mind.' It is to overcome obstacles and demonstrate that Buddhism means winning. It is to build a truly peaceful and prosperous society based on the humanistic principles of Nichiren Buddhism. It is to widely spread the Mystic Law throughout the world."
