-- DAILY GOSHO --
"How gratifying! You have associated with a friend in the orchid room and have become as straight as mugwort growing among hemp.”*

(On Establishing the Correct Teaching 

for the Peace of the Land -
WND-l, page 23)
Source: Experience in Faith, 

Seikyo Newspaper, Sep. 19th, 2026

*“A friend in the orchid room” indicates a person of virtue. The implication is that the company of a virtuous person works as a good influence, just as one is imbued with fragrance on entering a room filled with orchids. It is said that mugwort supported by hemp plants grows upright.

--- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ---

“Most people are so busy just trying to survive that they have little time to think about others.

“You, on the other hand, even while grappling with your own struggles and challenges, encourage fellow members, pray for people’s happiness and strive earnestly for kosen-rufu. This is the noblest way a person can live.

“Each of you will overcome your problems and hardships. Why? Because our mission as Bodhisattvas of the Earth is to demonstrate the great power of Nichiren Buddhism by triumphing over suffering through Buddhist practice."
