-- TO MY FRIENDS --

Let's devote ourselves 

to doing our best

at what we can do right now.

With this attitude,

accumulating 

many small accomplishments

becomes the power 

for our human revolution.

Let's advance with no regrets!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---

If in a single moment of life we exhaust the pains and trials of millions of kalpas, then instant after instant there will arise in us the three Buddha bodies with which we are eternally endowed. Nam-myoho-renge-kyo is just such a "diligent" practice.

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----

"People may look at you strangely, criticise you or insult you because of your Buddhist practice. But isn't that just what the Lotus Sutra and the Daishonin's writings predict? Therefore, we shouldn't fear such 'worldly troubles' or let them unsettle us." 

The New Human Revolution - Vol. 28, Great Path 29, translation released February 2023
