Daily Guidance

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The great French author Victor Hugo (1802-85) noted that faith is forged amid the pains of hardship and suffering. Don't be afraid of hardship or suffering, instead of running away from them, confront them head-on. Always resolve to take full responsibility yourself."
--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"And now the place where Nichiren and his followers chant Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, 'whether ... in mountain valleys or the wide wilderness' (chapter twenty-one, Supernatural Powers), these places are all the Land of Eternally Tranquil Light."
(Ongi kuden - Gosho Zenshu, page 781, The Record of the Orally TransmittedTeachings, page 192)
