[sgi-tomyfriends-wagatomo] To My Friends & Daily Gosho - January 18th 2023 + Daily Encouragement - January 19th

A translation of "To My Friends" published in the Seikyo Newspaper based on Ikeda Sensei's recent guidance, and more.

-- TO MY FRIENDS --
"Challenge" and "Effort"
are other words to describe 
"Youth." 
To all of our treasured young people
who are certain to become 
"bluer than indigo,"*
let's summon up our courage 
and victoriously overcome 
all the challenges of the day!

*The expression bluer than the indigo is also used to describe how disciples grow to become capable people, surpassing even their parents, seniors and mentors. 
(ref. Living Buddhism, Nov. 2022 issue)

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Even a feeble person will not stumble if those supporting him are strong, but a person of considerable strength, when alone, may fall down on an uneven path."

       Pray for Rain

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Buddhism is a teaching to open your limitless potential. Those who uphold this teaching will never be deadlocked or trapped in despair. Even if society becomes shrouded in darkness and all hope seems lost, I ask that you grow up to be brave champions who create hope and impart it to others. That is your mission." 

The New Human Revolution—Vol.28, Songs of Kosen-rufu 67, translation released December 2022.
