Daily Guidance

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"Tolstoy writes: 'A good person is more concerned about doing what he should do than about what will happen to him.' To be determined to fulfil one's responsibility, to do what needs to be done, no matter what the situation -- this is the spirit of leaders who are always victorious."

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Although I and my disciples may encounter various difficulties, if we do not harbour doubts in our hearts, we will as a matter of course attain Buddhahood. Do not have doubts simply because heaven does not lend you protection. Do not be discouraged because you do not enjoy an easy and secure existence in this life."
(The Opening of the Eyes - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol. 1, page283)
