[sgi-tomyfriends-wagatomo] 25th-31st Jan. 2021 Words of the Week, 25th Jan. Daily Gosho + 26th Jan. Daily Encouragement

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

January 25th-31st, 2021
-- WORDS OF THE WEEK --
The Daishonin teaches,
"The voice carries out 
  the work of the Buddha"*
Words can transmit the thoughts 
 of our minds to others.**
Even if we cannot meet in person,
 our hearts can communicate 
 with one another.
Let's bring forth our wisdom and creativity 
 by chanting sincere daimoku,
 and enthusiastically cultivate 
 heart-to-heart bonds with others!

* OTT, page 4
"Words echo the thoughts of the mind and find expression through the voice." 
- WND-2, page 843

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"There is a wonderful treasure that is more precious than all the treasures in the universe. That is 'one day of life' (WND – 1, 955). By challenging yourself, you can make that treasure shine brighter. The challenges you take on each day with all your might become priceless jewels."
