-- DAILY GOSHO --
"Could not this illness of your husband's be the Buddha's design, because the Vimalakirti and Nirvana sutra both teach that sick people will surely attain Buddhahood?  Illness gives rise to the resolve to attain the way.

("The Good Medicine for All Ills"

--- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ---

"Faith in the Gohonzon is key to working for kosen-rufu with unstinting dedication, confident that all Buddhas and bodhisattvas are praising our efforts.


"Elsewhere, the Daishonin writes: 'The Lotus Sutra remains the same, but if you repeatedly strengthen your resolve, your colour [raidiance] will be better than that of others, and you will receive more blessings than they do' (WND-1, 615).* Strengthening one's faith each day is the key to attaining Buddhahood in this lifetime."

* From "The Supremacy of the Law."
