-- WORDS OF THE WEEK --
Hooray for 
Soka Gakkai Mother's Day! 
(May 3rd)
The Daishonin writes,
"It is particularly difficult to repay 
the great kindness of our mother."*
Every action that we take 
for the sake of kosen-rufu 
is the ultimate way to show 
our appreciation 
and return the kindness.
With a heart of gratitude,
let's be proactive 
and take the initiative!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"'In this letter, I have written my most important teachings. Grasp their meaning firmly, and make them a part of your life.'

- From 'The True Aspect of All Phenomena' (WND–1, 386).

"The writings of Nichiren Daishonin show the way to happiness and peace for all humankind. For 75 years, I have striven for kosen-rufu alongside my fellow Soka Gakkai members, based on these precious scriptures. I have made my guides in this endeavour Presidents Makiguchi and Toda, who put the Daishonin's teachings into practice in their lives. I can affirm that this is the correct way to live to the fullest and have absolutely no regrets.

"This year, with fresh seeking spirit in faith, let's try to read the Daishonin's writings each day and, through this conversation with the Daishonin, elevate and revitalise our lives. Let's pave the way towards a hope-filled future, where all live together in harmony and peace." 

Towards a Hope Filled Future with the Daishonin's Writings <NEW SERIES> Teachings for the Happiness and Peace of All Humankind, January 6th, 2022 issue of the Seikyo Newspaper, translation released April 2022.
