-- DAILY GOSHO --
"The Buddha's utterances have become the works that compose the entire body of sutras and bring benefit to all living beings. And among the sutras, the Lotus Sutra is a manifestation in writing of the Thus Come One Shakyamuni's intent; it is his voice set down in written words. Thus the Buddha's heart is embodied in these written words."

(The Pure and Far-Reaching Voice

"One of the lines in the well-loved boys and girls division song 'Be Brave! With a Lion's Heart!' is 'Your smile is your passport to the world.' Nichiren Daishonin teaches that we should enjoy the challenges we face in our lives.* People who can carry on cheerfully with a smile throughout the four seasons, no matter what happens, will win in the future. They will also be able to make many friends."

Treasures of the Four Seasons, [24]  Make a Fresh Start on Your Journey of Learning!, March 1st, 2020 issue of Hope News, translation released November 2022

* "Difficulties will arise, and these are to be looked on as 'peaceful' practices".

(OTT, 115).
