-- DAILY GOSHO --
"Though you remain in Sado, your heart has come to this province. The way of attaining Buddhahood is just like this. Though we live in the impure land, our hearts reside in the pure land of Eagle Peak.  Merely seeing each other's face would in itself be insignificant. It is the heart that is important."  

("The Drum at the Gate of Thunder," 

WND-l page 949)

--- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ---

"'When praised, one does not consider one's personal risk, and when criticised, one can recklessly cause one's own ruin. Such is the way of common mortals.'

From "The True Aspect of All Phenomena" 

(WND-1, 385).

"Praising and commending others is the heart of the Lotus Sutra. Nichiren Daishonin's writings overflow with warm words of praise for his disciples.

"The Soka Gakkai is a realm of unsurpassed trust and reassurance, where members encourage and applaud one another. We never overlook the dedicated, unseen efforts of those working hard behind the scenes under the compassionate gaze of the Buddha of the Latter Day of the Law. Everyone is a great treasure.

"In these times rife with hateful words that malign and diminish others, let us powerfully share and spread kind words that respect and uplift others!

"Let's awaken the Buddha nature in all people's lives!"

Towards a Hope-Filled Future with the Daishonin's Writings, You Are All Great Treasures, Translated from 24th October, 2023, issue of Seikyo Newspaper, translation released November 2023.
