-- DAILY GOSHO --
"And yet, though one might point at the earth and miss it, though one might bind up the sky, though the tides might cease to ebb and flow and the sun rise in the west, it could never come about that the prayers of the practitioner of the Lotus Sutra would go unanswered."

--- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ---
"...there is a passage from 'On Attaining Buddha-hood in This Lifetime' that we should bear deeply in mind: 'Even though you chant and believe in Myoho-renge-kyo, if you think the Law is outside yourself, you are embracing not the Mystic Law but an inferior teaching' (WND-1, 3). We must never seek the Mystic Law outside ourselves.
"The life of each one of us is essentially an embodiment of the Mystic Law, deserving of supreme respect. The practice of chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo enables us to draw forth the boundless power that resides within us."
The Buddhism of the Sun—Illuminating the World, [82] Engage in Dialogue with the Unshakable Conviction That All People Embody the Mystic Law! Drawing Forth Immeasurable Treasures, February 2022 issue of Daibyakurenge, translation released November 2022
