Daily Guidance

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----

"Takasugi Shinsaku (1839-67) was a pivotal figure who helped usher in Japan's modern era, he wrote these lines of verse while in captivity: 'Though I might be confined in a cage like a bird, my heart is free like a flowing river.' No authority can shackle the human spirit. Whatever challenges may arise, simply look to the future and advance with a serene, undaunted spirit."

--- DAILY GOSHO ---

"Belief means to be without doubt."
(Ongi kuden - Gosho Zenshu, pg 725, The Record of the Orally Transmitted Teachings, pg 54)
