-- DAILY GOSHO --
A blue fly, if it clings to the tail of a thoroughbred horse, can travel ten thousand miles, and the green ivy that twines around the tall pine can grow to a thousand feet.

Correct Teaching

--- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ---
"The Daishonin goes on to say: 'If any of Nichiren's disciples disrupt the unity of many in body but one in mind, they would be like warriors who destroy their own castle from within' (WND-1, 217).
"The greatest offence in Buddhism is to disrupt or destroy from within the unity of 'many in body, one in mind' directed towards realising kosen-rufu. It would be as if, while waging an intense battle for kosen-rufu, our comrades-in-arms set fire to the castle we share and turned their swords against us. Those who undermine this unity, no matter how they may try to justify it, are doing the work of the devil king of the sixth heaven."
