-- WORDS OF THE WEEK --
The connection between people 
often extends 
far beyond our expectations.
Even in our immediate surroundings,
a door that opens to a new encounter 
can be found.
From one courageous voice,
let's create a new wave full of hope!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"'Ordinary people keep in mind the words "earnest resolve" and thereby become Buddhas.'

- From 'The Gift of Rice' (WND–1, 1125).

"Nichiren Daishonin's Buddhism of the people is the teaching of universal enlightenment. 'Ernest resolve,' strong determination in faith, is the key for ordinary people to attain Buddhahood, just as they are.

"It is the heart that is important. When we strive sincerely in our own capacities for the sake of the Law, the happiness of our friends, and the realisation of the Daishonin's ideal of 'establishing the correct teaching for the peace of the land,' while grappling with our own problems and worries, we can attain a state of unshakeable happiness.

"Let's express our appreciation and praise for our fellow members' noble dedication and together saver ever-greater joy and benefit!"

Spreading the Brilliant Light of the Daishonin's Writings {New Series}, [9] "Ernest Resolve" Is the Key to Attaining Unshakable Happiness, February 20th, 2021's issue of the Seikyo Newspaper, translation released April 2021.
