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

February 22nd-28th, 2020
-- WORDS OF THE WEEK --
My mentor, Josei Toda, used to say,
"An unassailable invincible fortress 
cannot be built without making
steady tenacious painstaking efforts."
From the palace of our own chapter, 
district and/or group,
let's advance step by step altogether
and let's encourage each member, 
one at a time and one after another,
to strive together 
in our shared struggles!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"On the other, it is to voice what one truly has in mind. Thus one's thoughts are expressed in one's voice. The mind represents the spiritual aspect, and the voice, the physical aspect. The spiritual aspect manifests itself in the physical. A person can know another's mind by listening to the voice. This is because the physical aspect reveals the spiritual aspect."
