---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"As Nichiren Daishonin points out: 'If one in body but different in mind, they can achieve nothing remarkable' (WND-1, 618). Without unity, the path to achieving kosen-rufu would be closed off. If that were to happen, the biggest problem would be that the path to everyone's happiness would also become blocked. This must be avoided at all costs."The Daishonin also declares: 'Although Nichiren and his followers are few, because they are different in body, but united in mind, they will definitely accomplish their great mission of widely propagating the Lotus Sutra' (WND-1, 618). Even under adverse circumstances, so long as everyone is united based on faith, they will be able to open the way and advance kosen-rufu. Unity is power."

"What does Bodhisattva Never Disparaging's profound respect for people signify? The purpose of the appearance in this world of Shakyamuni Buddha, the lord of teachings, lies in his behaviour as a human being."(The Three Kinds of Treasure - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Volume 1,page 852)
