* Seikyo Shinbun (Newspaper) is letting its staff and deliverers take an extended break as the new year comes and goes so over the next few days there will only be "To My Friends" on Jan. 1st. As you know though that won't stop us sending something to you everyday! But just so you know the TMF part will not be there! All the best…

— DAILY GOSHO ---
"In such a turbulent world, (and when you do not even have servants you can rely on,) you have sent your husband here. This shows that your sincerity is deeper even than the earth, and the earthly gods must certainly realise it. It is loftier even than the sky, and the heavenly gods Brahma and Shakra must also be aware of it."
("The Gods Same Birth and Same Name", WND-1 Page 316)

—— DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"In this year-end holiday season, we may have many more opportunities to meet and talk with others while sincerely continuing our efforts to advance kosen-rufu and contribute to society.
"Nichiren Daishonin writes: 'Because one has heard the Lotus Sutra, which leads to Buddhahood, with this as the seed, one will invariably become a Buddha' (WND-1, 882).
"Leading our lives based on the Mystic Law, we can sow the seeds of hope wherever we go, and create value in the form of happiness and peace in our own unique way.
"By reaching out to others in dialogue with a sincere wish for their happiness, we can help them form a connection with Nichiren Buddhism. With that firm conviction, let's wisely, joyfully, and cheerfully engage in heart-to-heart interactions."
SGI Newsletter No. 9520, Creating the New Era, (31) The Unseen Virtue of Striving Behind the Scenes for Kosen-rufu Manifests as Brilliant Visible Reward, from 18th Dec., 2016, issue of the Seikyo Shimbun, translation released 27th Dec., 2016.
