* Seems that some people may have received yesterday's TMF four times! Again it seems that Yahoo is on the blink but could we take this as our shared Sanso-shima and not let it get in our way? All the very best...

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The Daishonin writes: 'If you are of the same mind as Nichiren, you must be a Bodhisattva of the Earth' (WND-1, 385). Soka Gakkai members who exert themselves tirelessly to spread the Mystic Law as Nichiren Daishonin taught are Bodhisattvas of the Earth and the children of the Buddha. The Lotus Sutra passage that 'You should rise and greet [a practitioner of the Mystic Law] from afar, showing them the same respect you would a Buddha' (LSOC28, 365; cf. WND-1, 757) is the essence of the Daishonin's spirit.'
