-- TO MY FRIENDS --
Let's earnestly go visit  
our friends!
Such courageous actions lead to 
profound compassion.
Let's offer them warm 
heartfelt words of encouragement
that resonate with their hearts!

*"What's important is our wish for our friends' happiness and having the courage to talk to them about Buddhism. That courage will be transformed into compassion." 
(ref. The New Human Revolution, 
Vol. 18)

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"It must be ties of karma from the distant past that have destined you to become my disciple at a time like this. Shakyamuni and Many Treasures certainly realised this truth. The sutra's statement, 'Those persons who had heard the Law dwelled here and there in various Buddha lands, constantly reborn in company with their teachers,' cannot be false in any way."

  Ultimate Law of Life

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The true significance of the principles of the 'mutual possession of the Ten Worlds' and 'three thousand realms in a single moment of life' is apparent only when we make Buddhism the basis for transforming our lives, not by simply mastering its doctrines as a system of abstract thought."
