---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"The 28th and final chapter of the Lotus Sutra is titled 'Encouragements of the Bodhisattva Universal Worthy' (Jpn. Fugen Bosatsu Kambotsu Hon). Here, the expression 'encouragements' (kambotsu) is written with two Chinese characters meaning 'to recommend' and 'to inspire.' We can interpret this to refer to recommending the Mystic Law to others and inspiring them to take faith in it. The Lotus Sutra thus concludes with encouragement.
"Encouragement is the starting point of our Soka movement. That is why our movement is so positive and upbeat. Encouragement based on the Mystic Law is the driving force for ongoing victory."

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"You must be firmly resolved. Do not begrudge your fief; do not think of your wife and children. And do not depend on others. You must simply make up your mind."
