---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----

"I recall a member once sharing with me her distress over her family's opposition to her faith. I reassured her, saying: 'It only takes one person to turn on a light switch. But with that action, everyone else in the room is illuminated. It's the same when only one person in a family practises Nichiren Buddhism.'

"The Daishonin cites the proverb 'One is the mother of ten thousand' (WND-1, 131). The light of good fortune and benefit of a single individual with steadfast faith will illuminate their entire family and all connected to their life. That's why it is so important to offer the warmest encouragement to each person in front of us."
