-- DAILY GOSHO --
"My wish is that my disciples will be cubs of the lion king, never to be laughed at by the pack of foxes. It is hard to encounter a master like Nichiren, who since distant kalpas in the past down to the present day has never begrudged his body or life in order to expose the faults of his powerful enemies!"

(In the Continent of Jambudvīpa 
- WND, Vol. 2, page 1062)

--- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ---
"Responding to a question from his disciple Abutsu-bo about the nature of the treasure tower, the Daishonin writes:


"'Abutsu-bo is therefore the treasure tower itself, and the treasure tower is Abutsu-bo himself. No other knowledge is purposeful. It is the treasure tower adorned with the seven kinds of treasures-hearing the correct teaching, believing it, keeping the precepts, engaging in meditation, practising assiduously, renouncing one's attachments and reflecting on oneself.' (WND-1, 299)


"The Mystic Law enables all people to see and reveal their innate Buddha nature and make it shine. Everyone, without distinction or discrimination, is originally and inherently a noble treasure tower.


"This is a truly magnificent affirmation of humanity and a celebration of life. It brims with compassion arising from the great wisdom of equality that embraces the global family of humankind, and with the broad-minded wisdom that respects and supports individuality, enabling it to flourish in all its diversity."
