[SGI-ToMyFriends-Wagatomo] Words of the Week June 17th-23rd, Daily Gosho June 17th & Daily Encouragement June 18th

 

A translation of "Words of the Week" published in the Seikyo Shinbun based on President Ikeda's recent guidance, and more.

June 17th-23rd,2019
-- WORDS OF THE WEEK --
The Daishonin encourages us,
"(Even if you are not Shāriputra,)
you should leap up and dance."*
Let's hold dynamic discussion meetings 
full of joy!
Each and every one of us 
has an important role to play.
By enhancing our momentum more than ever 
and having solid unity,
let's strive together with enthusiasm, 
as if we were leaping and dancing,
to spread hope to the people around us.

*Gosho: WND-I, page 1119
