Daily Guidance

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"As the French writer Victor Hugo (1802-85) declared: 'We who believe, what can we fear?'... Those who live to achieve something great must be prepared to face difficulties. Nothing worthwhile can be accomplished without courage."

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"The wise man who works to propagate the five characters of the Mystic Law, no matter how lowly his station, should be looked upon as a manifestation of Bodhisattva Superior Practices, or perhaps as an envoy of Shakyamuni Thus Come One."
(How Those Initially Aspiring to the Way Can Attain Buddhahood through the Lotus Sutra - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol. 1, page 880)
