Daily Guidance

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"We are all human beings. Fundamentally, we are the same. Sincere encouragement and consideration, offered from one human to another, are the keys to forming heartfelt bonds among people, transcending social, generational, or ideological differences. Genuine humanism is found in the natural impulse to offer words of encouragement to another human being, no matter who it might be."

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Although I and my disciples may encounter various difficulties, if we do not harbour doubts in our hearts, we will as a matter of course attain Buddhahood. Do not have doubts simply because heaven does not lend you protection. Do not be discouraged because you do not enjoy an easy and secure existence in this life."
(The Opening of the Eyes - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol. 1, page283)
