Daily Guidance

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
Day by day, through consistently chanting daimoku, we can accumulate the causes and effects for attaining Buddhahood that make it possible to transform a mind clouded by the innate darkness of life into a mind reflecting the essential nature of phenomena and the true aspect of reality (cf. WND, 4). The virtues of these causes and effects over time become the bone and marrow of our beings, with flowers of benefit blossoming in our characters and actual lives.

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Nichiren is like the plant, and my teacher, the earth."
(Flowering and Bearing Grain - The Writings of NichirenDaishonin, page 909)
