Daily Guidance

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
The essential point of our Buddhist practice is to have person-to-person, one-on-one dialogue. Let's be proud of what we do and get involved on the forefront of activities. By chanting daimoku with strong faith and talking about this Buddhism and its humanism as much as we can, let's continue to advance cheerfully and confidently!

--- DAILY GOSHO ---
"Therefore, one should by all means persist in preaching the Lotus Sutra and causing them to hear it. Those who put their faith in it will surely attain Buddhahood, while those who slander it will establish a 'poison-drum relationship' with it and will likewise attain Buddhahood."
(How Those Initially Aspiring to the Way Can Attain Buddhahood through the Lotus Sutra - The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, Vol.1, page 882)
