Daily Guidance

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"As the Great Teacher T'ien-t'ai wrote: 'No worldly affairs of life or work are ever contrary to the true reality' (WND, 905). Worldly affairs are in no way separate or divorced from Buddhism. That's why the thoughts and actions of leading figures from society often have so much in common with Buddhism."
--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"A sword is useless in the hands of a coward. The mighty sword of the Lotus Sutra must be wielded by one courageous in faith. Then one will be as strong as a demon armed with an iron staff."
(Reply to Kyo'o - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, page 412)
