Daily Guidance

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
Let's be really open and tell people how we feel and think and engage in conversations with as many people as we can, being as sincere as we possibly can. Let's also make every effort to expand our circle of friends! One single courageous "wave" will become ten thousand and more waves leading towards absolutely overwhelming victories.
--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"What can we say, then, of persons who are devoting themselves to Buddhism? Surely they should not forget the debts of gratitude they owe to their parents, their teachers, and their country. But if one intends of repay these great debts of gratitude, one can hope to do so only if one learns and masters Buddhism, becoming a person of wisdom."
(On Repaying Debts of Gratitude - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 690)
