The true fullness of life comes from 
the commitment to struggle through

that come our way.
No matter what happens, charge ahead
with a spirit like that of the master 
of challenges!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Never seek this Gohonzon outside yourself. The Gohonzon exists only within the mortal flesh of us ordinary people who embrace the Lotus Sutra and chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo."

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"We, the members of the Soka Gakkai, Bodhisattvas of the Earth, have created a movement that celebrates humanity. It is propelled by our strong prayers directly connected to Nichiren Daishonin, and by always taking to heart his words 'praying as earnestly as though to produce fire from damp wood, or to obtain water from parched ground' (WND–1, 444)."
 
The Buddhism of the Sun—Illuminating the World, [70] Everything Begins with Prayer Infused with the Shared Vow of Mentor and Disciple, from the February 2021 issue of the Daibyakurenge, translation released December 2021.
