---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----

"The American philosopher and essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-82) wrote insightfully: 'Discourse, when it rises highest and searches deepest, when it lifts us into that mood out of which thoughts come that remain as stars in our firmament, is between two.' Nothing is more powerful than dialogue between two people.
"...One-to-one dialogue leads to real understanding, and that life-to-life interaction helps each person bring out their enormous potential."

"Now if you disobey the words of a parent, one who is easy to come by, and follow a friend of the Lotus Sutra, one who can rarely be encountered, you will not only be able to attain Buddhahood, but will also be able to lead to enlightenment the parent whom you disobeyed.'"
(The Three Obstacles and Four Devils - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin,Vol. 1, page 638)
