--- DAILY GOSHO ---

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"When we look at the Gohonzon, we find 'Nam-myoho-renge-kyo' inscribed down the centre, with the names of Buddhas, bodhisattvas, the gods of the sun and the moon and other figures on either side. These symbolise functions and power we inherently possess within our lives. When we chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo to the Gohonzon, we can tap that vast, limitless power that embraces the entire universe. Therefore, we will never fail to become happy. We can fulfil all of our prayers and shine radiantly in our own unique way. There is no need to compare ourselves to others.

"No matter what happens, steadfastly chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo and confidently tap the wisdom and strength that reside within you, and patiently continue making steady efforts."

Building a Bright Future Based on Our Vow, [14] The Lay Nun Nichinyo, Believe in Your Own Potential! From The Future Journal, May 1st, 2019, translation released December 2020.
