-- DAILY GOSHO --
"Because I have expounded this teaching, I have been exiled and almost killed. As the saying goes, 'Good advice grates on the ear.' But still I am not discouraged. The Lotus Sutra is like the seed, the Buddha like the sower, and the people like the field."

(The Essentials for Attaining Buddhahood 
- WND, Vol. 1, page 748)

--- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ---
"The great vow or desire for kosen-rufu is the loftiest of all earthly desires, the Buddha's noble wish. Our life state as we burn the firewood of earthly desires with the fire of our vow and advance eternally along the bodhisattva way is identical to the life state of the Buddha. We manifest the world of Buddhahood, just as we are. This is why we can tap limitless strength and unsurpassed wisdom and courage from within us."


The Buddhism of the Sun—Illuminating the World, Key Passages from the Record of the Orally Transmitted Teachings, [2] "introduction" Chapter of the Lotus Sutra, Our Dedication to the Great Vow Is Identical to the Life State of the Buddha, translation released October 2023.
