Daily Guidance

--- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ---
Earnestly chant daimoku and just keep pressing ahead with courage, undaunted by what others may say, always proud to be a Soka Gakkai member. Mr. Toda declared with unshakable self-assurance: "I am Josei Toda! I am a Soka Gakkai member! I don't care what anyone says, I'm proud of who I am!" This was his most deep-seated conviction. Let's all advance with the same self-confidence.
--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"To hope to attain Buddhahood without speaking out against slander is as futile as trying to find water in the midst of fire or fire in the midst of water."
(The Essentials for Attaining Buddhahood - The Writings ofNichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 747)
