-- DAILY GOSHO --
"The five characters of Myoho-renge-kyo, the heart of the essential teaching of the Lotus Sutra, contain the benefit amassed through the countless practices and meritorious deeds of all Buddhas throughout the three existences."

(The Teaching, Practice, and Proof 
- WND, Vol. 1, page 481)

--- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ---
"Even in the field of science, those who advocate ideas that overturn established theories are met with criticism and opposition. It is only to be expected, then, that those who spread Nichiren Buddhism, which enables people to overcome the negativity or destructive impulses inherent deep within human life, will invariably be assailed by obstacles and devilish functions. Precisely because the principles of Buddhism are true and unerring, opposition and criticism are inevitable. Those whose lives are dominated by fundamental darkness or ignorance shun the correct teaching.

"…those who strive in faith even more fearlessly despite such opposition are 'practising according to the Buddha's teachings' (cf.. WND-1, 626.)"

The Buddhism of the Sun—Illuminating the World, [35] To My Dear friends of the Youth Division—Part 3 [of 5], Successors—Live Out Your Lives Upholding and Fulfilling Your Vow, Practising According to the Buddha's Teachings, March 2018 Daibyakurenge incorporating revisions from a compilation of the subseries "To My Friends of the Youth Division" published in booklet form in Japanese in July 2018, translation released late October 2018.
