Daily Guidance

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"In every organisation, if the people who are its main stays are admirable individuals, they'll succeed in raising admirable successors. In otherwords, it all comes down to us, to whether we ourselves have the courage and fortitude of lion kings."
--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"This passage is saying that, if in a single moment of life we exhaust the pains and trials of millions of kalpas, then instant after instant there will arise in us the three Buddha bodies with which we are eternally endowed. Nam-myoho-renge-kyo is just such a 'diligent' practise."
(Ongi kuden - Gosho Zenshu, page 790, The Record of the Orally Transmitted Teachings, page 214)
