Jan. 2nd, 2024 Daily Gosho + Jan. 3rd Daily Encouragement

Daily Gosho & Daily Encouragement, both using official translations and a much as possible the most recent ones...

Tuesday, January 2nd, 2024
-- DAILY GOSHO --
"The first shi of the word shishi, or 'lion' (which means 'teacher'), is the Wonderful Law that is passed on by teacher. The second shi (which means 'child') is the Wonderful Law as it is received by the disciples. The 'roar' is the sound of the teacher and the disciples chanting in unison. The verb sa, 'to make' or 'to roar,' should here be understood to mean to initiate or to put forth."

--- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ---
"At the heart of the Soka mentor-disciple spirit is the cherished wish to rid the world of suffering and misery, and the eternal vow of the Buddha to realise worldwide kosen-rufu and world peace. Powerfully dedicating our lives to this cause, let us transform this world of conflict and division into a realm of peace and harmony, thus fulfilling our mission as Bodhisattvas of the Earth to change the destiny of humankind.


"This year, with youth in the lead, let us continue our efforts to connect people through dialogue based on trust and friendship, and cause flowers of peace and happiness to bloom abundantly in every corner of our planet."
