-- DAILY GOSHO --
"Suppose there is a ship that sails on the open sea. Though the ship is stoutly built, if it is flooded by a leak, those on the ship are sure to drown together. Though the embankment between rice fields is firm, if there is an ant hole in it, then surely, in the long run, it will not remain full of water. Bail the seawater of slander and disbelief out of the ship of your life, and solidify the embankments of your faith."

(The Embankments of Faith 
- WND, Vol. 1, page 626)

--- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ---
"…the Daishonin says 'with the spirit of many in body but one in mind' (WND-1, 217). 'Many in body' [which could also be expressed as diversity] means respecting one another's unique personalities and qualities, while 'one in mind' means uniting in heart and mind for the shared purpose of kosen-rufu.

"The walls of old Japanese castles, for example, are built of stones of various shapes and sizes; these differences allow the stones to interlock and support one another, making the walls strong.


"The spirit of 'many in body, one in mind' not only creates the strongest unity, it also enables each of us to make the most of our potential and give full play to our talents and abilities."


The New Human Revolution—Vol.30, Awaiting the Time 33, translation released February 2019
