Daily Guidance

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Mentors believe in their disciples. And it is precisely because of their immense faith and hope in their disciples that they don't go easy on them, that they train them thoroughly and are strict with them. Disciples who respond wholeheartedly to their mentor's belief in them can bring forth immeasurable power and ability. This is the rhythm of mentor and disciple. It is a symphony of victory."
--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"And yet, though one might point at the earth and miss it, though one might bind up the sky, though the tides might cease to ebb and flow and the sun rise in the west, it could never come about that the prayers of the practitioner of the Lotus Sutra would go unanswered."
(On Prayer - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 345)
