---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
With unflagging good cheer and vitality, let us continue our efforts to reach out to others in vibrant and meaningful dialogue. Nichiren Daishonin teaches the spirit of propagating Buddhism. 'Propagation' might be a big word, but all it means is engaging in dialogue aimed at helping people actualise lasting happiness and making the world a better place. Be confident and straightforward when you speak. Tell people about the greatness of our cause.
"I hope you will lead personally fulfilling lives, and that you will cultivate beautiful flowers of friendship and victory along the way.
"Those ruled by cowardice and envy cannot engage in heart-to-heart dialogue that really communicates with others. That is foolish, unfortunate, and pitiful."

"Nam-myoho-renge-kyo is just such a 'diligent' practise."
