[SGI-ToMyFriends-Wagatomo] 28th March, 2017 To My Friends & Daily Gosho + 29th March Daily Encouragement

 

Tuesday, March 28th, 2017
-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The Daishonin states,
"You need not seek far for an example."*
Let's all take the initiative 
in leading by example
as "leaders of kosen-rufu!"
When we do so,
genuine unity 
and the momentum 
for our advancement 
is born.

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"I wish to express my sincerest appreciation to the families who make their precious homes and privately owned centres available to members as meeting places.

"Let's always show utmost courtesy and consideration when holding meetings at members' homes or private facilities.

"Whenever he attended a discussion meeting, founding Soka Gakkai president Tsunesaburo Makiguchi warmly thanked the family who had opened their home for the meeting. My wife Kaneko's family in Ota Ward was one such family, and the memories of Mr. Makiguchi that she etched in her heart as a child have served as a source of lifelong inspiration for her."
