Daily Guidance

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Fostering youth invigorates the local community and opens the way to the future. Rosa Parks (1913–2005), the mother of the American civil rights movement, said: "I see the energy of young people as a real force for positive change." Because Buddhism is manifested in society, caring about society and contributing to people's welfare is a vital mission of Buddhist practitioners."

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"It is like the situation when one faces a mirror and makes a bow ofobeisance: the image in the mirror likewise makes a bow of obeisance tooneself.'"
(Ongi kuden - Gosho Zenshu, page 769, The Record of the Orally TransmittedTeachings, page 165)
