-- DAILY GOSHO --
"The heart of the Buddha's lifetime of teachings is the Lotus Sutra, and the heart of the practice of the Lotus Sutra is found in the 'Never Disparaging' chapter. What does Bodhisattva Never Disparaging's profound respect for people signify? The purpose of the appearance in this world of Shakyamuni Buddha, the lord of teachings, lies in his behaviour as a human being."

--- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ---
"As the Daishonin says: 'Those who believe in the Lotus Sutra are as if in winter' (WND-1, 536). Your Buddhist practice, chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, enables you to make the causes for your growth and victory amid the harshest 'winter.' I assure you that those who continue to chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo will never become unhappy."
